Prime and Composite Numbers Lesson - Google Slides and Power Point
Students will color in numbers on the Hundreds Chart using the fill color feature on Google Slides or Power Point. They will be asked to find the first four prime numbers and color them red. Then to locate all of the composite numbers, they will count to find the multiples of 2, 3, 5, and 7 . The students will fill these boxes in yellow. What is left are the prime numbers under 100. They will color all of these red. Make sure they count to see if they have 25 red boxes. Remind them that 1 is not composite or prime. As you go through this lesson with the students let them know that when they are counting the multiples, they may find squares that are already filled in. This just means that this number has other factors besides the one they are counting.
Fun and engaging, this lesson does a great job explaining prime and composite numbers. Printable Foldable included for the interactive notebook.

After 22 years in the classroom, I decided to retire and devote my time to creating engaging resources for teachers! Starting in 2020, I now have over 700 products; everything from Escape Rooms to Units of Study, Foldables, Projects, and more. Engaging students is my specialty!
I recently moved to Colorado after many years in California. With 3 great kids, and a cat named Theodore, life is good! I love to play golf, read historical fiction, play the piano, and spend time with family.
