Can You Find the Relationship?

In this lesson students will first define in their own words what the greatest common factor (GCF) and least common multiple (LCM) mean. They will take this understanding and apply it to solving GCF and LCM word problems. Students will then illustrate their understanding by creating posters based on their word problems. There are examples of different types of methods, online games, a rubric, and a power point to summarize this two-day lesson.
