Lesson Plan

• Basic Information: -

Name of Teacher: Nazeer Ahmed Class: 4th Subject: Mathematics

Topic: Subtraction of 6-digits Duration: 40 minutes Date:

• Mathematical Goals: At the end of this lesson students will be able to:

➢ Understand and apply the standard algorithm for subtracting 6-digit numbers.
➢ Use place value and the borrowing technique effectively when subtracting large numbers.
➢ Solve real-life problems that involve subtracting large quantities.

• Launch

❖ Activity-1 (Demonstrating Subtraction) 15 min

➢ Begin with a real-life scenario: "A poultry farm has 847,385 hens. If 312,793 are sold, how many
hens remain?"

➢ Write the subtraction problem on the board: 847,385 – 312,793.


➢ Ask students: "How would you solve this? What steps are needed?"
➢ Demonstrate the solution on the board using place value columns:
➢ Align digits vertically (H-Th, T-Th, Th, H, T, O).
➢ Subtract column-wise, starting from ones, and emphasize borrowing.

• Explore

❖ Activity-2 (Group/Individual Work) 15 min

➢ Divide students into small groups of three.


➢ Provide each group with a set of 6-digit subtraction problems worksheet.
➢ Ask students to work on the problems.
➢ Circulate around the classroom to observe the students’ work, provide guidance, and address any
misconceptions.
➢ Write some more subtraction problems on the board and ask students to solve these problems
individually.

• Summarize
❖ Activity-3 (Assessment) 5 min
➢ Invite a few groups to present one of their solved problems on the board.
➢ Ask questions such as: “How did you decide when to borrow?” and “What strategies helped you
keep the digits aligned?”
➢ Review common mistakes and clarify any misunderstandings by re-demonstrating key steps if
necessary

Activity-4 (Summarizing) 5 min

➢ Recap the subtraction process by outlining the main steps: aligning the digits, subtracting column by column
from right to left, and borrowing when required.
• Homework
➢ Ask students to solve the problems written in the textbook at home.
