This lesson is designed to support student understanding of dividing up to a four digit number by a two digit number.
The lesson begins by walking students through each step of the algorithm used to solve a four digit by two digit division equation. Supports and steps are given, to provide students with help when needed. Students apply the algorithm to solve one step division word problems.
The lesson should be taught before 5.3B and 5.3G.
