GRADE 4 Module 6 Lesson 3 - Interpret Remainders

GRADE 4 Module 6 Lesson 3 - Interpret Remainders

Learning Objectives

At the end of the lesson, you will be able to solve division problems and interpret the meaning of remainders within real-world contexts. You will also use visual models to divide numbers and understand the significance of remainders when not all quantities are evenly distributed. Additionally, you will be able to apply your understanding of division and remainders to determine the necessity of rounding up in certain situations.

Definition List

Remainder: The amount left over after division when numbers do not divide evenly.
Whole-number quotient: The whole number that results from dividing one number by another without considering the remainder.
Rounding up: Adjusting the quotient to the next whole number when the remainder indicates the need for one more unit to meet a requirement.

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. This 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.
