Grade 4 Math
Unit 5: Dividing by 1-Digit Divisors Activity 1: Understanding Division (GLEs: 10, 11)
CC: Ask students to describe situations that would involve a division problem such as 51 / 6. One example might be "when forming six teams from 51 students, how many members would each team have?" Have the students decide how they might find the answer. Some students may use repeated subtraction or some may form sets of 6 from 51 dots on a paper. Once students have an understanding of the division process, help them understand the traditional division algorithm. Explain to the students that the algorithm is simply a way of keeping track of the numbers as you go through the process of dividing.
