Bridge to Learning This lesson will be a review of pre-learned vocabulary This is a good time to review those words and assess student readiness for this activity. arrays multiples sum product area difference square units Gradual Release in Mathematics (This problem was obtained through Teachers Pay Teachers as a freebie, authored by Teaching with a Mountain View. This problem was designed to help students practice multi-step word problems.) Hand out the multi-step word problem, and have students glue it in their math journal. Raj was planting pumpkin seeds at the pumpkin patch. He started with 750 pumpkin seeds. On the first day, he made 15 rows with 25 seeds in each row. On the second day of planting, he made 12 rows with 30 seeds in each row. How many pumpkin seeds did he have left to plant on the third day? Read through the problem together. Model visualizing what these two pumpkin patches may look like. Ask the students to visualize as well and have students share out what they notice. Have the students highlight the numbers in the problem, as well as circling the question. What do they think will happen with the beginning number of 750, based on what we have read so far?
