Description
Support your 4th grade students in understanding multiplicative comparison with this HANDS-ON math intervention unit. This set of 5 math intervention lessons, along with assessment and independent practice activities, will put your students well on their way to developing the understanding necessary understand how to solve story problems involving multiplicative comparison using multiplication and division.
This unit begins with your students using hands-on tools to model multiplicative comparison with both multiplication and division. Your students also examine and sort problems involving multiplicative comparison vs. additive comparison. Finally, your students will tackle multi-step comparison word problems!
This intervention resource is designed to support you with everything you will need to intervene for struggling learners who have not yet developed an understanding of multiplicative comparison during whole group instruction.
Included you will find:
✎ Overview and Organization
The 5 Day Focus resources are designed to be informative and easy to use. I have included an overview of the related standards, an outline organizing the breakdown of how the topic is taught, a table of contents and a page outlining any and all materials that will be needed. I want you to be able to spend your time and energy on looking at your students’ results and reflecting on their learning- NOT on organizing materials and trying to figure out how to use this resource!
✎ Assessment
Pre and Post Assessment Materials that mirror one another will allow you to see where your students began and how far they have progressed. I have also included daily exit tickets and a tracking form so that you can easily monitor each of your students.
✎ Direct Instruction
Instructional lesson activities to use with small groups or individual students. Each of these lessons is detailed and includes hands-on activities. There is gradual release across the 5 days beginning with more concrete models and moving away towards representative and, finally, abstract models. This research-based progression will surely help your students to progress.
✎ Independent Centers
Each of the 5 lessons also includes an independent practice activity. The independent activities have been created in the style of math centers so that they can be used directly after the instructional lesson but so they can also be used and re-used as students practice their skills.

Originally reviewed on TPTI use this in my small group stations and absolutely love it! I like how it goes from concrete methods and abstract! I am going to buy the entire 4th grade bundle next!
