This is one possible method for using the area model for division.

With this division strategy, students divide by breaking the dividend into its expanded form. Then, students use familiar multiplication facts to divide. It is suggested that this would be the first of three strategies for division (preceding partial quotients and the standard algorithm.

In this video, a student explains how to use the area model for multiplication. The area model is a multiplication strategy based on decomposing numbers basedon place value.

This resource provides an overview and background information about multiplication fact fluency. This is not remixable.

This resource provides suggestions for next steps and instructional moves related to multiplicative comparisons in Grade 4. This aligns to Grade 4 Cluster 2. This is remixable.

This is one possible way to use the partial quotient strategy for division.

In this video, 5th grade students use the partial quotient division strategy to solve a 3-digit by 1-digit division problem. While this class begins with a brain dump, it is not necessary.

This packet contains exit tickets for Kindergarten Cluster 2, numbers 0-10.

Exit tickets are written responses to questions posed at the end of a lesson. They are brief assessments which allow the teacher to determine student understanding of the concepts and skills taught that day.

At the Kindergarten level, a blank copy of the exit ticket should be displayed on the board and read aloud to students. As teacher reads, students work independently on their own copy of the exit ticket.

This 2:51 minute video provides an overview of NC2ML Cluster 2: Building a Conceptual Understanding of Addition and Subtraction. Cluster 2 is about a 3-4 week unit of study.

Many math topics require distributed practice across time. This helps students develop fluency and understanding of number concepts. The Daily Math Routines suggest quick warm-ups for the beginning of the math block, which serve as distributed practice.
