Order of Operations - Daily Lesson Plans

Order of Operations - Day 1
Objective: The student will evaluate whole number numerical expressions, using the
order of operations limited to parentheses, addition, subtraction, multiplication, and
division (SOL 5.7)
Key Vocabulary: Expression, parentheses, exponent (for PEMDAS)
Time: 1 hour, 15 minutes
Materials: Whiteboards, Markers, Computers with Internet, PEMDAS Foldable, Glue,
Notebooks, Pizza Slice Operations Worksheet, Spiral Review.
4 Component Lesson Plan
Spiral Review (10 minutes)
Mini Lesson (10 minutes) Introduction to Order of Operations
1. Whole Group
a. Have student find the answer to 5+3x7 independently using white boards.
Most likely, some students will answer 26, while other answer 56.
b. Pair-Share. Have students defend their answers and explain their solution
process to their group.
c. Ask whether student got two different answers to one problem (26 or 56). Ask
whether students think it is acceptable to have two different answers to one
problem, and have them explain. Ask them to examine the expression. What
do they notice? Three numbers, addition sign, multiplication sign.
d. Activate Prior Knowledge. What is missing? (equal sign) What do we call it
when there is no equal sign? (expression).
e. Group Discussion Guiding Questions Do you think the order in which we
solve operations is important? How do we know what to do first?
f. Teacher direction. Expressions can be simplified using the order of operations.
Just like reading, we will work from left to right. PEMDAS acronym will help us
remember. Acronyms have letters that stand for steps.
i. First, complete all operations in parentheses. Provide example of
parentheses.
ii. Second, look for exponents. Provide example.
iii. Third, we will multiply or divide. Provide example.
iv. Fourth, we will add or subtract. Provide example.
Structured Centers (12 minutes each)
1. Research and Development (Differentiated Fact Fluency)
A TEAM ABOVE ALL.ABOVE ALL A TEAM.
a. Students will strengthen their basic fact skills through Reflex Math computer
program using laptops.
2. Industrial Park (Differentiated Hands-On-Activity)
a. Students will create a PEMDAS order of operation interactive foldable for
Marketplace Portfolio. Examples will be provided of finish product.
Differentiated pre-printed foldable is available for students who struggle with
writing objectives.
3. Accounting Department (Differentiated Independent Practice)
a. Students will create and solve order of operations pizza slices with a partner.
Numbers used, operations, and amount of steps required will be
differentiated for ability.
4. Board Room (Teacher Directed Small Group Instruction)
a. Teacher will guide students through various examples of operations involving
a variety of numbers, operations, and steps depending on the ability of the
group. Stronger focus on fact fluency and one step problems for those below
grade level. Exploration of exponents and multiple steps will occur for those
above grade level. Student progress is monitored and recorded.
Closure AND Assessment (5 minutes)
1. Guided Question Why is it important for everyone to follow the order of
operations?
2. Given the problem, 15- 7 + (3x3), which operation should you complete first? Why?

Mini Lesson (10 minutes)
1. Whole Group
a. Activate Prior Knowledge. Have students work with their group to discuss and
write down the acronym for order of operations on a whiteboard. (PEMDAS).
BONUS match operation with letter.
b. Review PEMDAS.
c. Introduction to Order of Operation Song. Have students glue lyrics in
Marketplace Portfolio.
d. Listen to Order of Operations Song to the tune of Katy Perrys Roar.
e. Go over center rotations and expectations for the day.
a. Song. Students will listen to an order of operation song to the tune of Katy
Perrys Roar in the computer lab. They will listen and read along with the
lyrics. A copy of the lyrics will be pasted into their journals.
b. Computer Game. Students will practice their order of operation skills using
an interactive video game in the computer lab. Part one will ask them to click
on an expression in the order it should be simplified. Students need to
achieve a score to unlock next part. Questions will be differentiated
depending on their progress with first part. Computer provides feedback for
students if they get a step incorrect. The second part will have operations
falling from the screen and students need to click on the correct order.
Computer will differentiate activity for students depending on progress.
a. Ipads and QR Code Task Cards. Students will solve various expressions
around the room by applying their order of operation knowledge. Once they
find the answer, they will use an Ipad to scan the QR code on the card. The
code will give them the correct answer. Differentiation will occur by having
students go to previously determined cards.
a. Test Review. I will review scores from their decimal test. Group instruction
will be determined by the data gathered from test results. Teacher will go
over commonly missed questions from the group. Students will also have
time to discuss any other questions they didnt get correct.
1. Guided Question How do you correctly simplify an expression? Give the correct
order of operations.
2. Given the problem, 3x7/4 + (2-4), which operation should you complete second?
Why?

b. Review PEMDAS.
c. Pizza Slice Guided Activity. Have students glue three pizza slices in their
Marketplace Portfolio. Label 1 step, 2 steps, and 3 steps above each. Use the
following for each example:
i. 1 step 3+4x2
ii. 2 step (3x4) + 4squared
iii. 3 step 6/2 +(3X6) x 10
d. Group Discussion Guiding Questions What step comes first? What step
comes second? What step comes third? What do you do if there are two of
the same operations to solve at once? (go left to right).

a. Students will continue strengthen their basic fact skills through Reflex Math
computer program using laptops.
a. Song. Students will continue to listen to an order of operation song to the
tune of Katy Perrys Roar in the computer lab. They will listen and read along
