Students can solve real world problems using their understanding of multiplication and division and the relationship they share.
Students will be able to model division of fractions by another fraction. Students will be able to divide a fraction by a fraction using the standard algorithm.
Patterns in division and multiplication can be found in nature, and an understanding of these patterns enables scientists to conduct systematic research.
Assess progress in calculating with decimals.
Just like multiplication, addition, and subtraction, division problems involve patterns and there are methodical ways in which manipulatives can be used to solve division problems with small dividends and divisors of 1 through 10.
There are two aspects to fluency with division of multi-digit numbers: knowing when it should be applied, and knowing how to compute it. While this task is very straightforward, it represents the kind of problem that sixth graders should be able to recognize and solve relatively quickly.
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about is it a multiple?.
This sample chapter from Hurst's book Picturing Math is an excellent resource for using picture books and activities for learning computation.
Blossom and Snappy go back to the pumpkin farm to investigate pumpkins -- using math -- to make into pies for Robbie. Then they go to a farmer's market to explore how vegetables are sold by weight. They also visit a packaging company to work with multiplication. The camera crew takes viewers to a local elementary school where students are asked to divide pumpkin pies. Then, Blossom's and Snappy's pies are finished and they surprise Robbie with them.
Demonstrates how dividing the number 3 by 2 is the same thing as dividing it by 1/2. [2:45]
Khan Academy learning modules include a Community space where users can ask questions and seek help from community members. Educators should consult with their Technology administrators to determine the use of Khan Academy learning modules in their classroom. Please review materials from external sites before sharing with students.
