Division Strategies: Decomposing the Dividend Strategy Foldable & Practice
The Decomposing the Dividend Strategy encourages students to break the dividend into parts that can be divided easily. The long-term goal of this method is for students to solve the division problem mentally. In my experience, it will take a great deal of practice before students will master the ability to solve the problem mentally using this method. I have found that many higher achieving math students will pick up on the strategy and choose to use it.
This packet contains a tri-fold fold-up (front and back) that shows how the strategy works. It would make a wonderful resource for both students and parents. Also included is a 2-sided practice page as well as a detailed answer key.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Hello! I am currently in my 24th year of teaching. Thirteen of those years were spent teaching first grade and one year teaching kindergarten. For the past 9 years, I have taught 5th grade. While there are many things I miss about working with 'the little ones' in the primary grades, I have to say I have really found great satisfaction in working with older students. While teaching reading is a great passion of mine, I have found myself teaching math the past four years. That's just how it goes in education sometimes :) I am slowly finding that a have a passion for math as well. Who knew! No matter what grade level or subject I find myself teaching, I have always enjoyed using technology to make my life easier. I enjoy sharing those various items I've created with other teachers.
