Description
The complete 12-day Calculating Using Knowledge Of Structures 1 unit for Grade 6 Math. Open a folder, click a file, teach a lesson.
What's included
• Master unit plan (.docx) — ONE document with every day's lesson plan inside, plus a unit cover (big picture, prerequisites, end-of-unit goals, concrete resources, assessment notes) and a scope-and-sequence table. Read the whole unit at one sitting before you teach Day 1.
• 12 individual teacher lesson plans (.docx) — same per-day plans, also delivered as separate files so you can print just the day you need
• 12 projectable slide decks (.pptx) — one per daily lesson
• 12 student worksheets (.docx) — one per daily lesson, with full answer keys
• 12 differentiated exit quizzes (.docx) — three tiers per day (Support / Core / Stretch, 9 questions total), with answer keys — quick formative assessment to check each day's LO
• Recipe-graded across every day — varied question types, real-world contexts, differentiated three-tier practice
Daily learning objectives
• Day 1: Part-Whole Structure — Use part-whole structure to represent calculations.
• Day 2: Stories Matching Structures — Create stories that match given additive structures.
• Day 3: 3-Addend Part-Whole — Represent a part-whole problem with 3 addends.
• Day 4: Calculate Missing Part — Find the missing part given the whole and other parts.
• Day 5: Same-Sum Rule (Adjust Both) — Apply the same-sum rule: if one addend goes up by k, the other can go down by k.
• Day 6: Balance With Same-Sum Rule — Use the same-sum rule to balance equations with an unknown.
• Day 7: Adjust One Addend — Show how adjusting one addend changes the sum by the same amount.
• Day 8: Mental Addition With Known Facts — Use known facts to add efficiently in the head.
• Day 9: Same-Difference Rule — Apply the same-difference rule: minuend and subtrahend adjust by the same amount.
• Day 10: Balance With Same-Difference — Use the same-difference rule to balance subtraction equations.
• Day 11: Adjust Minuend — Predict how increasing/decreasing minuend affects the difference.
• Day 12: Mental Subtraction — Use known facts to subtract efficiently in the head.
Why this is a unit, not a worksheet pack
• Sequenced — the lessons build on each other from foundation through assessment
• Spiral retrieval — every day starts with retrieval of prior learning
• Variety baked in — no flat compute-only lessons; every day has reasoning, worded problems, spot-the-mistake, cloze, multi-part scaffolds
• Premium quality at a unit price — 12 lessons for less than the cost of buying them all individually
Format
• Microsoft PowerPoint (.pptx) — 16:9 widescreen
• Microsoft Word (.docx) — A4 / US Letter friendly
• US spelling and CCSS alignment
• Verdana / Calibri only — renders cleanly on any school PC
Part of the full Grade 6 Math curriculum.
