Unit focus

  • Students use place-value partitioning, fact relationships and written division, then decide whether a remainder means extra groups, leftovers, a fraction, a decimal or a rounded whole number.
  • Use this routine: Represent → Reason → Calculate → Interpret → Verify.
  • Watch for remainder discarded automatically: It may change the practical decision.
