Estrategia de creación de 5 días: Introducción a la división de tercer grado

Being able to tackle and solve division word problems are essential skills for any 3rd grade student. Students often feel uneasy when beginning to learn how to solve division problems, however, with 5 simple strategies in their toolbox, they will feel confident when approaching any problem. In this class students will learn how to understand and apply the strategies of repeated subtraction, arrays, equal groups, fact families, and understanding remainders. 

My teaching style is very energetic and I structure every lesson using the gradual release of responsibility model. In this model students begin every lesson with very high support form the teacher, then move into a period of discussion and working together with peers to solve problems. At the end of every lesson students are then given time to attempt some problems independently and then we will go over the answers to these problems before moving on. After each class students will also be given an extra practice worksheet to further practice the strategy taught in that day's class. Following is an outline for the order in which each strategy will be taught in this camp:

Day 1: Repeated Subtraction
Day 2: Arrays
Day 3: Equal Groups
Day 4: Fact Families
Day 5: Understanding Remainders
