Dividing Whole Numbers: 1-Digit Divisors

Smoothly transition your class into using the long division algorithm with this hands-on math lesson. Working in pairs, young mathematicians practice using base ten blocks or play money to model division by single-digit divisors....

Through a chapter from a text book, upper-elementary learners explore how to divide by two-digit divisors accurately. In the beginning, they use rounding and compatible numbers to estimate quotients when dividing two-digit divisors. The...

Hooray for word problems! This worksheet displays four containers at the top of the page for which learners must solve multiple-digit division problems. None of the dividends involved exceed the hundreds, and all of the divisors are...

This long division PowerPoint presents a pneumonic device in which the first initial of generic family members names corresponds with the first initial of the proper steps to follow when solving a long division problem with a two-digit...

Help your learners succeed when dividing multi-digit numbers using standard algorithm with this last video in a three-part series. Your number crunchers will begin by estimating the problem with benchmark numbers. Show them that these...

How does multiplication help when dividing a number? Prepare your number crunchers to become fluent in dividing multi-digit numbers by relating base ten blocks to the standard algorithm with this video. Reinforce students’ understanding...

What do benchmark numbers and an area model have in common? An area model is another strategy that learners can use when performing multiplication and division. The key feature of the model shown in the video, is that it represents the...

RJ had an awesome basketball season this year! Use division by double-digit numbers to calculate his scoring average in this instructional presentation. Starting with an explanation of the terms dividend, divisor, and quotient, the long...

Manipulatives make learning division easier! Your class will discover the difference between dividing with one- and two-digit divisors, and practice the procedures for each using the standard algorithm. They will use estimation to ensure...

Whole numbers are the natural numbers including zero. The instructor illustrates and explains place value. She draws a place value chart and then defines each term and what the numbers mean. She writes a number in standard form and then...
