Multiplication and Division Strategies
Below you will find resources to support using multiplication and division strategies. Models can be used for both operations. It is important for students to choose strategies based on the numbers involved in the problems.
Home Connection Pages:
111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 117, 118(Skills Review: 116)AREA AND PERIMETER- (Look at this chart to review the difference between area and perimeter)
MAKE A SKETCH MODEL- (Great visual to show the importance of using sketches as a strategy for multiplication and division. Very important when finding area and perimeter)
FRACTION STORIES- (Great visual to support fraction story problems)
EFFICIENT STRATEGIES- (Chart showing a variety of multiplication strategies. Choosing the BEST strategy is important when solving a problem)
Revisiting Area and Perimeter
Revisiting Area and Perimeter
Below you will find resources to support the understanding of the area and perimeter of rectangles. Students should see what role division plays in area and perimeter problems. Below is support for these two types of situations:
Finding the unknown dimension in problems where they know the area and one dimension .
Unknown dimension in problems where they know the perimeter and one dimension.
Home Connection Pages:
119, 120, 121, 122DIVISION AND AREA- (Look at these two models to help find an unknown dimension)
PERIMETER AND AREA- (Look at this model to help find an unknown dimension when only knowing the perimeter)
DOG PEN- (Watch this video that shows finding a missing dimension)
RECTANGLE TABLE- (Watch this video that shows finding missing dimensions)
COMPARING AREA- (Watch this video that shows how to compare the area of two different rectangles)
Line Plots, Fractions, and Division
Line Plots, Fractions, and Division
Below you will find resources to support collecting and representing data measured in fractions of a unit on a line plot. Also support with solving problems that involve addition and subtraction of fractions using the line plot data.
Home Connection Pages:
123, 127, 128(Skills Review 124, 125, 126)LINE PLOTS- (Watch this video that explains line plots in a simplistic way)
RANGE, MODE, MEDIAN- (Look at this poster to support understanding of range, mode, and median when analyzing data)
Games for Extra Practice:
Games for Extra Practice:
Two player game in which players place pieces on the board by answering math problems. Choose from addition, subtraction, multiplication, division. Like Connect 4.
Your child can select a food and characters to practice division with remainders. Use dividends from 1-500 and divisors from 1-50. As the food is doled out, your child will explore partial quotients ("chunking") in a long division problem, recording each step of the problem as they go.
In this Tetris-like game, players arrange falling blocks that can be reconstructed into different arrays. Doing so allows them to explore array building and factorization.
