Division Powerpoint: review of key words and process
This powerpoint reviews the different parts of a division problem (dividend, divisor, and quotient) and puts them in the context of a word problem. It also walks students through the process of making an estimate of a quotient to a problem with a 3 digit dividend, solving the problem using long division (without a remainder), and checking to see if the answer is reasonable.

2 Digit X 2 Digit Multiplication Rap
This is a rap that outlines the steps in solving a 2 digit X 2 digit multiplication problem. My students love rapping it with an instrumental rap track off of YouTube. They remember the process much more effectively when they are able to set the learning to music.
This is the instrumental track we use. Sorry about the title!

Module 3 Application Problems Lessons 2-6
Application problems are included throughout the modules to work on applying strategies and reinforce skills through problem solving. We have taken the "RDW," "read, draw, write," process and put it onto paper so that students have a hard copy and something hands on to use to figure their problems out, rather than just a whole group problem to be completed on the board or smartboard. These problems work great for individual, partner, and small group!

Numberless Word Problems
Cut out these task cards and have student take time comprehending what operation (operations) he or she will use to solve the problem. Working on a follow-up with blanks to fill-in numbers, as well as cards with actual numbers in them. This is just a start for the thinking process. I'd like to know how well it works with kids' comprehension before I move on. Would LOVE feedback!
