Teaching Division: Manaiakalani Google Class OnAir

#ClassOnAir

Throughout the year I will be updating my Manaiakalani Google Class OnAir site with links to my planning, resources, reflections, videos of my teaching, and links to the learners work on their blogs. There are 7 Manaiakalani teachers from various schools and levels for you to check out. It's 21st century window into our classrooms. 
Check out the whole ClassOnAir site here.

Here's  a preview of my latest lesson.

Division

Direct Instruction 
The learning intention for this lesson was to solve division problems using reversibility. This lesson was the first session for our next block of division work, but is following on from a weeks worth of multiplication learning. I have aimed quite low and used the 5 times table so that knowledge will not get in the way of using the strategy. The key understanding that needed to be taken away from this lesson was that Division and Multiplication are the same, and you can split numbers to make them easier to solve.
