Lessons tagged with "divide-decimal-numbers"

This number sense lesson focuses on dividing decimal numbers. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students change the problem into long division form, if necessary, and move the decimal point in the divisor to change it to a whole number, if necessary. Then, move the decimal point in the dividend the same number of places. Finally, they divide the decimal numbers and put a decimal point in the quotient above the decimal point in the dividend. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and Periodic Reviews with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items and eight flash cards on changing to long division form.
