With about 10 minutes left during iTime,we decided to work one division problem using two different methods. Using the SMART airliner,students will demonstrate 8561 ÷ 4 using the traditional division algorithm and the partial quotients method. The partial quotients method involves students using compatible numbers (usually with multiples of 10) to divide or “get closer”to the number being divided. The answer parts are then added together to get the final answer (quotient).
Watch now as Morgan volunteers to demonstrate the traditional division algorithm.
Watch as Maya volunteers to demonstrate the partial quotients method.
Great job Morgan and Maya! Having your classmates quietly listening and watching as your record can be a daunting task,but you made it look easy! Thank you for volunteering!
