              Prime Numbers

              To define what makes a prime number students begin the lesson by calculating factors of several integers.  Prime numbers are then defined and listed.  To aid their recollection of the first 12 primes students are challenged to apply them within calculations.  As learning progresses students use the Sieve of Eratosthenes to calculate all the primes up to 100.
              Differentiated Learning Objectives
              • All students should be able to recall the first 12 prime numbers.
              • Most students should be able to recall and apply the first 12 prime numbers.
              • Some students should be able to use the Sieve of Eratosthenes to calculate all primes up to 100.

              Area of Compound Shapes

              January 13, 2020

              To find the area of compound shapes students need to understand what the word compound means.  Therefore, I ask students to discuss in pairs a definition for the word compound and to extend it to include the shapes below.  As a result of their learning in science students agree that a compound can be defined […]
