Lesson Plan of Addition (4-digits with carrying)
Subject Mathematics
Grade III
Students` Learning Outcomes
- Add numbers up to 4-digits (with carrying) vertically and horizontally.
Information for Teachers
- To add 4-digit numbers (with carrying):
-
- Firstly add ones. If there are 10 ones or more, then change 10 ones for 1 ten and carry it to the column for tens.
-
-
-
- Secondly ad tens. If there are 10 tens or more, then change 10 tens for 1 hundred and carry it to the column for hundreds.
- Lastly add hundreds. If there are 10 hundreds or more, then change 10 hundreds for 1 thousand and carry it to the column for thousands.
-
- While teaching the lesson, also consult textbook where and when applicable.
Material / Resources
Writing board, chalk / marker, number flashcards (8122, 8221, 8212,8112), chart (having rules of addition with carrying), Mathematics textbook
Introduction
- Ask the students:
-
- What did you learn yesterday?
- After their response, write the following questions on the board:
-
-
-
- Call any two students to solve the questions on the board.
- Check the answers and correct the mistakes if any.
- Ask the students to tell the students that if the sum of two numbers exceeds 9, we adopt the procedure of carrying.
- After taking their response, tell the students that if the sum of two numbers exceeds 9, we adopt the procedure of carrying.
- Now write the following question on the board:
-
- Ask the students:
-
- Can you add these 4-digit numbers?
- Collect their response and solve the question with the help of the students.
- Conclude that the procedure of addition of 2-digit and 3-digit numbers is applicable to the addition of 4-digit numbers.
- Ask the students to tell which method of addition of 4-digit numbers.
- Ask the students to tell which method of addition we used in solving these questions.
- After their response, tell the students that this method of addition is called Vertical Method of Addition.
- Tell the students that we are going to learn addition of 4-digit numbers (with carrying) using vertical and horizontal methods.
-
Development
Activity 1
- Display the following chart in front of the class:
- Demonstrate the rules of addition with carrying with the help of this chart.
Activity 2
- Write the following questions on the board: Add 3648 and 5362 vertically.
- Ask the students to solve the question in their notebooks.
- Provide guidance to the students where needed.
- At the end solve the question on the board and ask the students to check their work.
- Appreciate the students having correct answers.
- Facilitates the students requiring further guidance.
Activity 3
- Write the following questions on the board: add 4563 and 3649 horizontally.
- Ask the students to solve the question in their notebooks.
- Place the following number flashcards on the table in front of the class.
- Ask the students to pick the correct number flashcards from the table after solving the question.
- Tell the students that winner of this activity will be the one who first picks the correct number flashcard from the table.
- Display the correct number flashcard after the announcement of the winner.
- Ask the students to clap for the winner.
- Check the answers of the remaining students and facilitate them if necessary.
Sum up / Conclusion
- Revise the rules of carrying of addition of 4-digit numbers with the help of chart used in Activity 1.
Assessment
- Ask the following questions to assess the students’ understanding of the concept:
- What did you learn today?
- In what condition, the rule of carrying applies?
- What is meant by horizontal and vertical methods of addition?
- If there are 10 ones or more after adding the ones, then what will you do?
- Collect their feedback and conclude the result.
Follow up
- Ask the students to complete the following questions in their notebooks.
- Find the sum of the smallest and the greatest 4-digit numbers using horizontal method of addition.
- Ask the students to solve the questions given in the textbook.
