Full lesson | Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle} |

This lesson aligns with the mathematics curriculum by fostering number sense and understanding through exploration of composite numbers and their properties.
Step Number | Step Title | Length | Details |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Introduction to Composite Numbers | 5 min | Briefly explain what composite numbers are. Include examples (4, 6, 8) and differentiate them from prime numbers. Ask students if they can provide more examples. |
2 | Guided Practice | 10 min | Distribute worksheets. Guide students through identifying composite numbers within a given range (e.g., 1-100). Answer questions and provide clarification. |
3 | Group Activity | 10 min | Divide students into small groups. Each group will use counters to create composite numbers by combining factors. Circulate among groups to facilitate discussion and understanding. |
4 | Class Discussion | 3 min | Regroup and discuss findings. Ask groups to share one composite number they identified and explain its factors without presenting their work. |
5 | Homework Assignment | 2 min | Assign homework where students will list 10 composite numbers and highlight their factors. Remind students to be ready for a quick check at the beginning of the next lesson. |
