III. Teaching Strategies
Components Duration Activities and Procedures
1. Introduce the lesson topic: "Today, we will be practicing our reading skills while solving
multiplication problems with integers. This will help us understand how to multiply
positive and negative numbers more effectively."
2. Review the concept of positive and negative integers, providing examples to reinforce
understanding.
Pre Reading 10 mins
3. Discuss key vocabulary terms related to multiplication of integers, such as "product,"
"multiply," "positive," "negative," "factor," and "multiplicand."
4. Model how to read a multiplication problem involving integers aloud, emphasizing the
importance of identifying the signs (+ or -) and understanding the rules for multiplying
positive and negative numbers.
1. Distribute copies of multiplication problems involving integers to students, ensuring
that the problems vary in complexity to accommodate different skill levels.
2. Encourage students to read each problem carefully, paying attention to the signs (+ or -)
and identifying the numbers being multiplied.
3. Provide support and guidance as students work through the problems, offering
During
30 mins assistance with decoding unfamiliar words or clarifying mathematical concepts if
Reading
needed.
4. Encourage students to use the pre-reading strategies discussed earlier to approach each
problem systematically.
5. Circulate the classroom to monitor students' progress and provide individualized
support as needed.
1. Review the solutions to the subtraction problems involving integers as a class, inviting
students to share their approaches and reasoning.
2. Encourage students to explain their thought processes and strategies for solving each
problem, emphasizing the importance of understanding the signs and applying the rules
Post for subtracting positive and negative numbers.
10 mins
Reading 3. Address any misconceptions or errors that arise during the discussion, providing
additional explanations or examples as needed.
4. Reinforce the connection between reading comprehension skills and mathematical
problem-solving abilities, highlighting the value of being able to understand and
interpret mathematical language effectively.
1. Prompt students to reflect on their experience with reading multiplication problems
involving integers during the lesson.
2. Encourage students to write about:
 Any challenges they encountered while solving the problems and how they
overcame them.
Journal
Writing  Strategies they found helpful for understanding mathematical vocabulary and
concepts through reading.
 The importance of being able to read and comprehend multiplication problems
involving integers accurately in their own words.
3. Allow students time to write their responses in their journals, emphasizing the
importance of thoughtful reflection and self-assessment.
