Dividing Whole Numbers with One-Digit Divisors

Learning Objective

Understand and apply strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and the relationship between multiplication and division to find whole-number quotients and remainders with one-digit divisors and up to four-digit dividends.

What do you already know about dividing whole numbers?

Review of Place Value

Place value is the value of a digit based on its position in a number. For example, in the number 3,245, the 2 is in the hundreds place, so its value is 200.

Properties of Operations

Review the commutative and associative properties of multiplication and division and how they can help in solving division problems.

Multiplication and Division Relationship

Discuss how multiplication and division are related, and how understanding one operation can help in solving problems involving the other.

Division with One-Digit Divisors

Learn and practice division with one-digit divisors using strategies based on place value and the relationship between multiplication and division.

Using Remainders

Understand how to interpret and use remainders in division problems, and when it is appropriate to include the remainder in the quotient.

Practicing Division

Apply the strategies learned to solve division problems with one-digit divisors and up to four-digit dividends.

Word Problems

Solve word problems involving division using place value, properties of operations, and the relationship between multiplication and division.

Checking Answers

Review strategies for checking division answers, such as using multiplication to verify the quotient and remainder.

Interactive Activity

Engage in a group activity where students create division word problems for their peers to solve, incorporating the strategies learned in the lesson.

Review and Recap

Summarize the key concepts learned in the lesson and address any questions or misunderstandings.

Assessment

Assess students' understanding of division with one-digit divisors through a short quiz or problem-solving activity.

Homework

Assign practice problems or a reflection activity for homework to reinforce the concepts covered in the lesson.

Write down 3 things you learned in this lesson.

Have students enter three things they learned in this lesson. With this they can indicate their own learning efficiency of this lesson.

Write down 2 things you want to know more about.

Here, students enter two things they would like to know more about. T

his not only increases involvement, but also gives them more ownership.

Ask 1 question about something you haven't quite understood yet.

The students indicate here (in question form) with which part of the material they still have difficulty. For the teacher, this not only provides insight into the extent to which the students understand/master the material, but also a good starting point for the next lesson.
