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}

Topic

Texas TEKS 6.2: Operations with Rational Numbers

Objectives

• Students will be able to identify and apply operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) with rational numbers.
• Students will demonstrate understanding through standard algorithms and apply skills to solve word problems involving rational numbers.
• Students will work collaboratively to reinforce learning and improve problem-solving skills.

Materials

• Whiteboard and markers
• Worksheets with exercises on rational numbers
• Calculators (optional for checking work)
• Graph paper
• Projector (for any visual presentations)
• Exit tickets for assessment

Grade/Age Group

• Year/Grade 6

Subject

• Mathematics

Class Size

• 20 students

Lesson Length

• 30 minutes

National Curriculum Alignment

• This lesson aligns with the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) for Mathematics, focusing on operations with rational numbers.

Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length	Details
1	Introduction	5 minutes	Introduce operations with rational numbers. Briefly explain what rational numbers are.
2	Direct Instruction	10 minutes	Demonstrate addition and subtraction with rational numbers using examples on the whiteboard.
3	Guided Practice	5 minutes	Students work on example problems in pairs. Teacher circulates to provide support as needed.
4	Independent Practice	5 minutes	Distribute worksheets. Students work independently on problems applying their learned skills.
5	Review and Check for Understanding	3 minutes	Quickly review answers as a class. Use exit tickets to gather insight on student understanding.
6	Homework Assignment	2 minutes	Assign additional practice problems for homework without requiring presentations in class.

Homework

• Students will complete a worksheet with additional problems focusing on operations with rational numbers to reinforce the day's learning. The teacher will collect these for assessment without requiring student presentations.
