Operations and Algebraic Thinking 4.OA Use the four operations with whole numbers to solve problems. 4.OA.2 Multiply or divide to solve word problems involving multiplicative comparison, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem, distinguishing multiplicative comparison from additive comparison.1 1 4.OA.3 See Glossary, Table 2. Solve multistep word problems posed with whole numbers and having whole-number answers using the four operations, including problems in which remainders must be interpreted. Represent these problems using equations with a letter standing for the unknown quantity. Assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies including rounding. Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice 2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. Mathematically proficient students make sense of quantities and their relationships in problem situations. They bring two complementary abilities to bear on problems involving quantitative relationships: the ability to decontextualize—to abstract a given situation and represent it symbolically and manipulate the representing symbols as if they have a life of their own, without necessarily attending to their referents— and the ability to contextualize, to pause as needed during the manipulation process in order to probe into the referents for the symbols involved. Quantitative reasoning entails habits of creating a coherent representation of the problem at hand; considering the units involved; attending to the meaning of quantities, not just how to compute them; and knowing and flexibly using different properties of operations and objects. 8 Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. Mathematically proficient students notice if calculations are repeated, and look both for general methods and for shortcuts. Upper elementary students might notice when dividing 25 by 11 that they are repeating the same calculations over and over again, and conclude they have a repeating decimal. By paying attention to the calculation of slope as they repeatedly check whether points are on the line through (1, 2) with slope 3, middle school students might abstract the equation (y – 2)/(x – 1) = 3. Noticing the D-38 Providence Public Schools Dividing Multi-Digit Whole Numbers (6–8 days) Grade 4 Mathematics, Quarter 2, Unit 2.2 Version 4 regularity in the way terms cancel when expanding (x – 1)(x + 1), (x – 1)(x2 + x + 1), and (x – 1)(x3 + x2 + x + 1) might lead them to the general formula for the sum of a geometric series. As they work to solve a problem, mathematically proficient students maintain oversight of the process, while attending to the details. They continually evaluate the reasonableness of their intermediate results. Clarifying the Standards Prior Learning In Grade 3, students understood division as the sharing of objects. They used division within 100 to solve word problems involving equal groups, arrays, and measurement quantities. They also understood division as an unknown-factor problem. By the end of third grade, students fluently divided within 100 using the relationship between multiplication and division. They also solved two-step word problems with the four operations. Division was a major focus in Grade 3 according to the PARCC framework. Current Learning In Grade 4 students find whole number quotients and remainders with up to four-digit dividends and onedigit divisors. Division strategies are based on place value, properties of operations, and the relationship between multiplication and division. Students solve word problems involving multiplicative comparisons (see CCSS Glossary, Table 2). Students solve multi-step word problems with division and represent an unknown quantity in a division equation with a letter. Division is a major focus in Grade 4 according to the PARCC framework. Future Learning In Grade 5 students will extend their knowledge of division to finding the quotients and remainders of problems with four-digit dividends and two-digit divisors. Estimation becomes relevant when extending to two-digit divisors. Fifth-grade students will also divide decimals to the hundreds place. They will interpret a fraction as the division of the numerator by the denominator, and they will also divide fractions. Additional Findings “As we indicated earlier, relatively little research is available to shed light on how students think about multi-digit division or what learning activities might be of the most help to them. Sample teaching lessons have been proposed, and preliminary results suggest that students can construct their own procedures that, over time, approximate standard algorithms. As with multiplication, however, the best that educators can do at this point is to examine some alternative algorithms that are likely to support students’ efforts to develop proficiency with multi-digit divisors.” (Adding It Up, p. 210) In grades 3-5, helping students develop meaning for whole-number multiplication and division should become a central focus. By creating and working with representations (such as diagrams or concrete objects) of multiplication and division situations, students can gain a sense of the relationships among the operations. (Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, p. 34) According to Progressions for the Common Core State Standards, K: Counting and Cardinality; K–5, Operations and Algebraic Thinking, students in Grade 4 learn to compare multiplicatively. The language in Multiplication Compare problems can be difficult. In this document, a tape diagram illustrates a compare problem used in Table 3.

The CCSS for Mathematical Content and the CCSS for Mathematical Practice should be considered when designing assessments. Standards-based mathematics assessment items should vary in difficulty, content, and type. The assessment should comprise a mix of items, which could include multiple choice items, short and extended response items, and performance-based tasks. When creating your assessment, you should be mindful when an item could be differentiated to address the needs of students in your class. The mathematical concepts below are not a prioritized list of assessment items, and your assessment is not limited to these concepts. However, care should be given to assess the skills the students have developed within this unit. The assessment should provide you with credible evidence as to your students’ attainment of the mathematics within the unit.

In fourth grade, students build on their third grade work with division within 100. It was a major focus at that grade level. When planning for the unit, take this into consideration. Providence Public Schools D-41 Grade 4 Mathematics, Quarter 2, Unit 2.2 Version 4 Dividing Multi-Digit Whole Numbers (6–8 days) This standard calls for students to explore division through various strategies. After developing an understanding of using arrays to divide, students begin to use a more abstract model for division. This model connects to a recording process that will be formalized in the 5th grade. At the beginning of Lesson 4-1, use a cues, questions, and advance organizers strategy to activate students’ prior knowledge of division. Make connections to the meaning of division by asking students a constructing support question. For example, you can prompt their prior knowledge by asking, “How are multiplication and division related?” Have students share their examples. Connect this discussion to the key vocabulary for this unit. When planning for this unit, refer to the Operations and Algebraic Thinking Progression, http://commoncoretools.files.wordpress.com, page 23. Here you will find a table with examples of multiplication and division situations. In this unit the focus is only on whole number division, division with remainders will be taught in the third quarter. In Lesson 8-5 (TE, page 177), use identifying similarities and differences to review and practice concepts. Students will compare factors and multiples using a Venn diagram. Incorporate Ten Minute Math Activities, the Problem of the Day, and the Daily Spiral Review that are aligned to The Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. EnVision Center Activities and Investigations Activities offer additional practice for student learning and support small group differentiated instruction. Use teacher created common tasks as formative assessments to monitor student progress and understanding of critical content and essential questions. Use data from formal and informal assessments to guide your instruction and planning. For planning considerations, read through the teacher editions for suggestions about scaffolding techniques, using additional examples, and differentiated instruction as suggested by the envision and Investigations resources, particularly the Algebra Connections and Teacher Notes section.
