Long Division

Students are beginning to learn long division this week with the algorithm.  There are many steps to doing long division and various operations involved (divide, multiply, subtract).  It's a tricky process and we'll be doing lots of practice this week to bridge what we did with the manipulatives (understanding the concept) with the algorithm (procedure).  We're off to a good start.  Here are a few more tools for students to use at home:
