Essential Questions: 



•   What is the factors and the multiples?

•   How to find the factors and multiples of a number?
•   What is the usage of factors multiples in daily life? 
•   What is the prime and the composite number?
•   How to differentiate the prime and the composite number? 
•   What is the highest common factor (HCF) and the lowest common multiple (LCM)?
•   HCF and LCM in daily life.

Learning Activities:

A . Opening/Introduction:
Show the animation about the factor of a number in daily life
Write a number as a product of its factors.
Writes a number and its factors, and recognise which  prime or composite number is
Give another examples of the numbers which is prime or composite number
Writes a number and its factors, then identify its prime factors with the aid of factor tree or 
    other method
Gives the interactive worksheet about HCF to build students understanding about HCF

B. Main Activities:
Explains a number is divisible by its factors and the remainder is zero
Give the questions about factors and multiples by animation
Give the difference between factors and multiples of a number, by animation
Explains the concept of prime and composite numbers
Give the difference between prime or composite numbers,  by animation 
Play a game in groups related to prime or composite numbers on interactive game   
     animation
Give the worksheet about factor and multiple to the students
Give the worksheet about prime factorization and index notation
Ask the student about HCF and LCM concept, then the teacher explain more clearly about 
    it with animation

C. Closing:
Students will ask teacher about the materials that they do not understand
Summarize the lesson that just learned
