Lesson Plan Description

Have fun reviewing or introducing the complicated concept of interpreting numbers while dividing. Your 3rd graders will:

Segment 1: students will explain division as a set of objects partitioned into an equal number of shares, identify parts of division equations (dividend, divisor, and quotient), and interpret quotients in division. (32 ÷ 4 = 8 can be 4 groups with 8 items in each group
or 8 groups with 4 items.)
Segment 2: students will play a game to reinforce division as a set of objects partitioned into an equal number of shares and interpret quotients in division. (32 ÷ 4 = 8 can be 4 groups with 8 items in each group
or 8 groups with 4 items.)

These lessons can be taught over the span of a half day or you can use the lessons independently, broken up over several days.
