Math Lesson - "Factors of 1-100"

by Bethany Baptiste
4th - 5th Grade


Understanding factors will build a strong foundation in successful fraction computation.

This 4 day unit is written in the "Common Core Way".  Each lesson starts with a skill for students to investigate and follows with a guided activity to practice the skill. Then, there are three levels of independent practice to guide students to mastery at their own pace. 

This 4 day unit is broken down into:

Day 1 - Discovering Factors
Use factor models and factor rainbows to understand the basics of factors.

Day 2 - Exploring Factors
Find all prime and composite numbers 1-100 by using multiples.

Day 3 - Divisibility and Factors
Play Figuring Factors game by applying divisibility rules and finding common factors.

Day 4 - Assessment

I hope the goodies in this unit help set your students up for success 
when moving on to adding and subtracting fractions!
