The students in the long term and on his/her own, will be able to Develop number sense and use relationships amongst whole numbers to solve problems Use problem solving, mathematical communication, mathematical reasoning, connections, and representations to

Precise language helps us express mathematical ideas and resolve them Numbers have unique characteristics including prime, composite, even, odd numbers, and factorization. Identify and describe odd and even numbers Define way a factor is Find all the factors of a number Identify the multiples of a number Determine whether a number is a prime number or a composite number Find the prime factorization of a number using the Factor Tree method Determine the greatest common factor of a given set of numbers Find the Least Common Multiple of a given number

Essential Questions

How can you determine whether a number is odd or even? Prime or composite? How do you find the factors and multiples of a number? How can having knowledge of numbers be useful in mathematics?

Knowledge and Skills

Students will know Even numbers divide exactly into 2 while odd numbers leave a remainder of 1 Factors are the numbers that are multiplied to get a product while multiples are numbers that can be divided exactly by a particular smaller number Prime numbers are numbers that have only 2 factors: Composite numbers are the numbers that have more than 2 factors Prime factorization is a composite number written as a product of all its prime factors That 2 or more numbers can have common factors and

Students will be skilled in

Generating all factors of a number Generating a finite list of multiples of a number and understand the list is infinite Classifying numbers as prime, composite, square, even, and odd Comparing and contrast characteristics of whole numbers Identifying the GCF and LCM for a given set of whole numbers Writing any number as the product of prime numbers

Stage 1 Alignment To obtain evidence of Evaluation Criteria Where performance is judged in terms of
Each group has to prepare a written and oral presentation. The groups work will be graded according to the rubric below. 5Cs Competence Character Description Accurate in giving information Showing independence and originality of work Submitting within the allotted time Following teachers instructions and working together as a group Putting art, neatness of work and uniqueness in doing the project Presentation Score Written Report Score

Assessment Evidence Students will need to show their learning by PERFORMANCE TASK(S)

Our Special Number Pick a number between 10 and 100. Explain why you chose that number. List three or four mathematical facts about your number. List three or four connections you can make between your number and your world. As we progress through the unit, add any other important information you learn about your number. Create an interesting way to present your information.
