Find whole-number quotients and remainders with up to three-digit dividends and one-digit divisors, using two different strategies.
Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Given an expression, identify the dividend and the divisor (dividend = the total amount, divisor = number of groups or the number in each group).
  • Use base ten blocks to model the dividend.
  • Use base ten blocks to divide into groups determined by the divisor in order to find the quotient.
Representation:
  • Symbols ÷, =, long division symbol
  • Understand the following concepts and vocabulary of division, part, whole, divisor, dividend, quotient.
  • Given a division expression, find the array using a jig on a pictorial representation to solve.

  • MAFS.4.NBT.2.6: Find whole-number quotients and remainders with up to four-digit dividends and one-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.

Cluster:
Use place value understanding and properties of operations to perform multi-digit arithmetic. (Major Cluster) : 

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.

Access Point Courses
  • Grade Four Mathematics (#5012060): The benchmarks in this course are mastery goals that students are expected to attain by the end of the year. To build mastery, students will continue to review and apply earlier grade-level benchmarks and expectations.
  • Access Mathematics Grade 4 (#7712050): Access Courses:

    Access courses are for students with the most significant cognitive disabilities. Access courses are designed to provide students access to grade-level general curriculum. Access points are alternate academic achievement standards included in access courses that target the salient content of Florida’s standards. Access points are intentionally designed to academically challenge students with the most significant cognitive disabilities. 

  • Grade 4 Accelerated Mathematics (#5012065): In grade 4 accelerated, instructional time will emphasize six areas: (1) developing the relationship between fractions and decimals; (2) multiplying and dividing multi-digit whole numbers, including using a standard algorithm; (3) adding and subtracting fractions and decimals with procedural fluency, developing an understanding of multiplication and division of fractions and decimals; (4) developing an understanding of the coordinate plane and plotting pairs of numbers in the first quadrant; (5) extending geometric reasoning to include volume and (6) developing an understanding for interpreting data to include mean, mode, median and range.

    Curricular content for all subjects must integrate critical-thinking, problem-solving, and workforce-literacy skills; communication, reading, and writing skills; mathematics skills; collaboration skills; contextual and applied-learning skills; technology-literacy skills; information and media-literacy skills; and civic-engagement skills.

  • Foundational Skills in Mathematics 3-5 (#5012015):

    This course supports students who need additional instruction in foundational mathematics skills as it relates to core instruction. Instruction will use explicit, systematic, and sequential approaches to mathematics instruction addressing all domains including number sense & operations, fractions, algebraic reasoning, geometric reasoning, measurement and data analysis & probability. Teachers will use the listed standards that correspond to each students’ needs. 

    Effective instruction matches instruction to the need of the students in the group and provides multiple opportunities to practice the skill and receive feedback. The additional time allotted for this course is in addition to core instruction. The intervention includes materials and strategies designed to supplement core instruction.
