Language Objectives:
(Throughout unit make sure all four language modalities,
reading, writing, speaking and listening are addressed)
I can discuss my moves during the game using the
divisibility rules
Materials:
 Game sheet page 26
 Number cube showing 2, 3, 4,
5, 6 and 9.
 Counters
 Calculator
 White Board/White Board Pens
 EL Achieve Cards
Student Engagement: Leadership
How will this lesson develop leadership skills for our
migrant students?
2. I speak and listen well to others.
Strategies to develop leadership skills:
Students work in pairs when playing the game.
Students can use EL Achieve Cards to use polite
conversation.
Examples include:
Why do you think…
How did you come up with…
Warm Up: High Yield Routines ~ Mystery Number
Have students discover your “mystery number” by giving clues. Example includes…
My number is a multiple of 6.
My number has six factors.
My number is less than 5 x 5.
What is my number?
Content Development:
Review the divisibility rules with students. Give students several three digit
numbers and have students work in pairs to determine which numbers are divisible
with 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 9. Numbers that could be used are 516, 234, and 940. Each of
these numbers are divisible by more than one divisor.
Have students predict which numbers the 3 digit numbers would be divisible.
Then have students justify their answers.
Notes:
Have students start
questions with EL
Achieve Card Ask a
Question.
Game Activity:
Explain the rules of the game. The aim of the game is to arrange four in a row either
horizontal, vertical or diagonal.
See “How to Play” on page 24 of Blue Fundamentals Book.
After students roll the number cube they find numbers that can be divided by that
divisor. Have students justify their answers by calculating numbers on a white
board. If students disagree they can use a calculator to verify answers.
As students are playing circulate and ask questions such as, what number will you
need to roll to get the number you need.
Reflection:
See After the Game on page 25. Ask students to
determine the number with the most and fewest
divisors possible.
Review and Assessment:
Exit Ticket- Give students the number 171. Ask
student to determine which numbers this three digit
number can be divided by without a remainder.
Home School Connection:
Send number cubes and game sheets home for students to play with other family
members.

Guiding (Focus) Question:
What are other strategies besides divisibility
strategies, when thinking about division
Lesson: Mental Division Strategy-Developing mental
strategies for division and the strategy of “compatible
numbers.”
Unit Learning Targets:
Using mental strategies and divisibility rules to divide large numbers
Success Criteria: (Student Friendly)

My number is a three digit number.
My number is more than 5 x 100, but less than 6 x 100.
My number can be divided by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 9.
What is my number? (540)
Content Development:
Provide students with the following question:
I know that 20 times 7 is 140. If I take away 2 sevens that leaves 126. So that means
126  7 = 18.
 Is Jillian’s calculation correct?
 Draw a picture showing Jillian’s reasoning.
 Provide a story problem to match the equation.
 Justify your reasoning with words, pictures and numbers.
Notes:
Show Area Model as
illustrated in the notes
from Illustrative
Commentary for this
task.
Use Jillian’s Problem
As a class/group how could you represent this equation with a picture/context/ and
explanation.
Problem Solving Activity:
Use Jillian’s method to find 222  6.
Reflection:
Review and Assessment:
Review the distributive property and discuss other
examples.

Play, Does it Divide Again? In this game your child will need to come up with
numbers for the game board. Your child could create 2, 3, 4 or even 5 digit numbers
to place on the game board. Make sure they include numbers that could be divided
by each of the numbers on the number cube.

Divisibility Rules:
[2] A number is divisible by two if the digit in the ones place is divisible by 2.
[3] A number is divisible by three if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3.
[4] A number is divisible by four if the number represented by the digits in the ten’s and one’s place is divisible
by 4.
[5] A number is divisible by five if the ones place is either a 0 or 5.
[6] A number is divisible by six if it is divisible by 2 and 3.
[9] A number is divisible by nine if the sum of its digits is divisible by 9.

Does it Divide?
Goal of Game:
Your child will practice rules for divisibility of larger numbers. Your child will be able to tell if a larger number
can be divided by the numbers on the number cube using divisibility rules. Then your child can practice
dividing numbers to prove if their thinking is correct.
Materials:
Does it Divide Game Board
Number Cube with 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 9
Divisibility Rules
Counters (2 colors)
How to Play:
The goal is to cover four numbers in a row either up and down, across or
diagonal.
1. The first player rolls the number cube.
2. The player chooses a number on the game board that is divisible by the number rolled.
3. The number claimed is covered by a counter. (Both players can claim the same number and have
different colored counters on only one space.)
4. The player has to justify the answer by calculating the number claimed by dividing it by the number
rolled.
5. If a player cannot find a number that is divisible by the number rolled, they miss a turn.
6. The other player has a turn.
7. The player who makes the most four in a rows is the winner.
Questions I could ask my child:
If you have three in a row what numbers would you need to win?
What number would that be divisible by?
Are there other numbers you could roll and still get the number you want?
