3rd Grade
Monday, October 20, 2014 This lesson will take about 45
minutes. This lesson was designed for 25 students.
CC.2.1.3.B.2: Apply place value understanding and
properties of operations to perform multi-digit
arithmetic.
M03.A-T.1.1.2: Add two-and three-digit whole numbers
(limit sums from 100 through 1,000 and/or subtract
two-and three-digit numbers from three-digit whole
numbers.
Informal Evaluation
While the students are completing their addition and
subtraction problems on their whiteboards, I will walk
around the room and check the students answers. I will
write a tally mark beside the students names that got
the correct answer to the problem on my pre-made list,
which has the students names and one section for
addition problems and one section for subtraction
problems.

Adaptations/Accommodations for Students with Special Needs

For a student who is hard of hearing, I will wear a special
microphone on my clothing. The microphone will allow
the student to hear my words better. The microphone is
synced to his hearing aids. Also, the student will sit near
the chalkboard so he can easily hear the teachers
words.
For students who need extra help in math, I will provide
multiple examples of adding and subtracting two and
three-digit numbers on the chalkboard. I will
continuously watch these students and offer them extra
help and guidance throughout the activities.
For students who are advanced in math, I will provide
challenging addition and subtraction problems. The
students will be challenged because they will be adding
and subtracting four-digit numbers. Also, I will walk
around the room and ask challenging questions, as
needed.
