Dear LOR user,

Thank you for being a big part of this community. To better support the initiatives around open educational resources in the state of Michigan, all resources on the Michigan Virtual Learning Object Repository (LOR) are being moved to #GoOpen Michigan (link is external) on September 30th, 2018. During the transition, our LOR will be moved to an archived state, not allowing new user registration or new content to be added. An email with more details was sent to registered users of the LOR in September. To make use of the great resources on the platform, we encourage you to create an account and add your own new resources to the #GoOpen Michigan platform (link is external).

Supplementing Partial Quotient Division Instruction in EveryDay Mathematics

Description: 

After teaching the Everyday Mathematics program for years and observing that students struggle with partial quotients long division, I realized the need to create a multiple day workshop on partial quotients division.  By the end of the workshop,  students will master dividing a four digit number by a one digit number using the strategy of partial quotient division.  Both face to face  and online instruction and practice will be used to accomplish this goal.

Learning Targets: 
Students will know: * How division relates to multiplication * How to use their understanding of multiplication to help them in solving division problems
Students will master dividing a four digit number by a one digit number using the strategy of partial quotient division.

Though I have not used this entire plan design before, after teaching the Everyday Mathematics program for years and observing that students struggle with partial quotients long division, I realized the need to create a multiple day workshop on partial quotients division.  By the end of the workshop,  students will master dividing a four digit number by a one digit number using the strategy of partial quotient division.  Both face to face  and online instruction and practice will be used to accomplish this goal.
