Subject(s): Math 5 Lesson: Long division using the algorithm Date: March 29

Learning intention and curricular link (competency or content):

Lesson Format
*I can use various strategies to multiply 2 and 3 digit numbers by 1 digit numbers
*I can
Cue use the(10
Curiosity: algorithm
mins) to divide
*I can show my steps and explain my thinking
1. Talk about different strategies we have used so far for division, different vocabulary
learned and how multiplication and division are related
2. Students use whiteboards to demonstrate responses to division problems using
various strategies
Main: (30 mins)
FNPL and Perspectives: Adaptations/Extensions:
*Students learn through observation, * challenging students with bigger
individual experience, and practice; it numbers to divide by, students can
also requires patience and time create challenge questions for each
other in pairs
*students can use grid paper to guide
Evidence of Learning (assessment tasks and strategies):
*(FOR) working sheets we will go over this at the end of class or the next day
*(FOR) exit slip question
*(FOR) observation of students and participation

Resources:
*white boards
*working sheets
*math sense textbook

Synthesis and Closure (5 mins):

*bring the class back together, if students are not finished they can complete it at home

*go over couple questions with students input ask variety of students to get idea of
students understanding
*put up a question under the doc cam students will grab a sticky note, solve, post on

Access/Supplement background
information:
3. Use graph paper (or division
questions with grids) and
demonstrate algorithm strategy
under doc cam.
5. Explain steps: Divide, multiply,
subtract, check, bring down and
repeat as necessary show students
acronym and they can create their
own to help them remember steps as
well.
7. I will be working with small groups
of students who might need extra
help or want to go over the steps
more.
Explore, experiment, collaborate:
4. Students are responding, problem
solving and filling in their own sheets
as we go through division questions.
6. Students will have independent
work time to complete working
sheets. If finished early, they can find
a partner to check answers with.
8. Those who finish early will create a
set of challenge questions with their
partner to solve.
9. Students can also play math
games quietly if they are completely
finished.
