__**Math Unit**__ **Caroline Dela Victoria**

Number Sense - Place Values, Number notation

 * __Summary__**
 * This math unit will allow students to work with symbols and tactile objects to represent a number value.
 * Students will learn how to write numbers in standard, expanded, and written form.
 * Students will be utilizing prior knowledge of counting using addition, subtraction, and multiplication; especially automaticity.


 * __Lesson 1:__ Place Value With Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphics (Standard Form)**



> http://www.edhelper.com/math/math_third_grade_THRD15.htm
 * To begin the unit lesson, I will begin with an anticipatory set that introduces to students to Ancient Egyptian Hieroglypic Writing, more specifically the hieroglyphic number system. @http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoevycJ1bbY&NR=1
 * using the hieroglyphic number system to learn about place value (ones, tens, hundreds, thousands).
 * write numbers in Standard Form Ex) 1234
 * Use chart to place number in appropriate column + draw hieroglyphic
 * Assessment: Formal Homework: Write the value of each number in the box


 * __Lesson 2:__ Hieroglyphic Place Value Strips (Expanded Form)**
 * Students will be writing numbers in Expanded Form Ex) 1,234 = 1,000+200+30+4
 * Manipulative: Fold-able Place Value Strip
 * Use Math journal to write expanded form and draw hieroglyphic

> activity: answer questions from them using numbers in written notation + hieroglyphic
 * __Lesson 3:__ Written Form using Hieroglyphic Manipulatives**
 * Students will be writing numbers in written form Ex) one thousand two hundred thirty-four
 * Engage students: Ancient Egyptian King Tut video -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57R2DjkpH2I&feature=related

 * Literature: //The mystery of the hieroglyphs: the story of the Rosetta stone and the race to decipher Egyptian hieroglyphs// by
 * Engage students with history of Rosetta stone (three languages: hieroglyphics, Demotic, Greek): artifact that helped Europeans decipher hieroglyphics

**__My Trip to Egypt__**
The Pyramid of Giza with a lazy camel.

I'm about 5' 1" -- check out the pyramid blocks!

Sitting outside the homes of where the slaves lived.

The cell of a slave.

I've never been on a horse.

The infamous Sphinx, one Pyramid of Giza, and Me.
