Hello! Mrs. Jones was back with us this morning to continue exploring the division of decimal numbers. The goal for Grade 6 is to divide a decimal number by a single-digit number.
Today we combined using blocks (paper versions of blocks) with representing (drawing) our steps.
Our next step will be to work backwards - looking at picture representation of a division equation and figuring out what the original question was.
Once we have a handle on that, we will connect the symbols (the traditional long-division algorithm) to what we have already learned.
Please ask me about today's questions. What am I confident with? What do I still find challenging?
