Intro Activity (30min) Direct Instruction: Introduce the concept of two-digit multiplication by explaining that we are multiplying numbers that are greater than 9. Write a simple two-digit multiplication problem on the board (e.g., 24 × 13). Break down the multiplication into smaller, manageable steps. For example: Multiply the ones digit (4 × 3 = 12, carry the 1). Multiply the tens digit (20 × 3 = 60). Repeat with the tens digit of the second number (4 × 10 = 40). Add all the partial products together. Main Topic/ Activity
Multiplication Relay Race (40min) Divide students into small groups (3-4 students per group). Each group will work together on a set of two-digit multiplication problems in a relay-style format. One student starts the relay by solving the first part of a multiplication problem (e.g., multiplying the ones place). The next student solves the next part (e.g., multiplying the tens place). The final student solves the last step (adding the partial products together). After each step, students pass the "math baton" (e.g., a pencil or a marker) to the next teammate. Independent Practice (20 minutes) Provide each student with a worksheet containing a set of two-digit multiplication problems. Encourage them to try the traditional method of multiplication. Reflections(10min) Ask students to share one strategy that helped them solve the multiplication problems today. This reinforces learning and gives students an opportunity to help one another. Closing (10 minutes) Review key concepts from the lesson. Expected Learning Outcome: Knowledge building-
