Math Integrating Science Strategic Lesson Plan
Teacher:Mitchell
Dates: 8/15-8/18
Lesson and/or Unit Title: Long Division
Stage 1 – Desired Results
Amount of Time: 94
Common Core Standards: Fluently divide multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.
Language Proficiency Level:6th Grade
Student Learning Objective (s): Students will apply division in order to
Essential Questions: (Checking for Understanding)
solve real-world problems involving division.
In a word problem, what words would indicate division?
According to the problem, what is the dividend? What is the divisior?
What is the meaning of the remainder?
Lesson Outcome (s): Students will solve real-world problems using
division and interpret remainders as they relate to the situation.
Key Vocabulary: Estimation, Division, Dividend, Divisor, Quotient, Remainder.
Stage 2 – Assessment Evidence
Performance Task: (created artifact…)Students will create a chart of well-known words that indicate addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division that
occur in word problems..
Summative Task: (quizzes, tests, prompts)
Exit Ticket: Error Analysis: Division
Stage 3 – Learning Plan
Anticipatory Set (10): Estimate, then divide. 5911÷23.
Input/Modeling/Crafting (25): In this lesson, we are going to discuss estimation and division. We are going to see how estimation can be used to help us
determine how we need to approach a division problem and how we can use the estimation to check and verify our division.
In any word problem you encounter, you first identify the question.
S: State or restate the question.
O: Organize the facts.
L: Line up to solve the problem
V: Verify your answer.
E: Examine the results. Let’s begin with this problem:
S: How may bananas fit into each box, and how many are going to the homeless shelter?

Dates: 8/15-8/18
O: 242 bananas fit into 15 boxes; all boxes are filled with exactly the same number of bananas.
L: First, Estimate, then divide.
242 ÷15 ≈ 240 ÷ 20 = 12
15| 242 → 15 x 000 = 0
15| 242 → 15 x 10 =150
15| 92 → 15 x 6 = 90
15| 2 → There are no 15s in 2. Therefore there are 2/15 of 15 leftover. 16 bananas in each box and 2 go to the
homeless shelter.
V: 16 x 15 + 2 = 242
E: So the correct answer must be C.
A bakery has to send 2, 720 cookies to an annual charity event. If each box can hold 16 cookies, how many boxes
will the bakery need?
S: How many boxes will the bakery need?
O: sending 2, 720 cookies to annual charity event. Each box can hold 16 cookies.
L: Estimate: 2720 ÷ 16 ≈ 2700 ÷ 20 = 135
16|2720 → 16 x 0000 = 0
16|2720 → 16 x 100 = 1600
16|1120 → 16 x 70 =1120
16|0 → There is no remainder.
V: 170 x 16 = 2720
Therefore, the bakery will need 170 boxes for the annual charity.
If 8,472 ÷ k = 12, what is the value of k?
S: What is the value of k?
O: 8,472 ÷ k = 12, 12 and k are factors of 8472.
L: 8472 ÷ 12≈ 8500 ÷ 10 = 850
12|8472 →12 x 0000=0
12|8472 →12 x 800=8400
12|72 →12 x 00=0
12|72 →12 x 6=72
12|0 → There is no remainder.
V: 806 x 12 =8472.
Therefore k = 806.

Guided Practice (25): Students will practice division handout 1 where they must estimate and then solve. Students will work in pairs to complete each
problem and use the SOLVE method to complete each word problem. Once completed, each student will go to the whiteboard and complete a division
problem from the practice.
Independent Practice (20): Independently, students will complete Long Division Practice (Word Problems)Handout 2.
Closure (14):Exit Ticket: Error Analysis: Division
Alignment Extension (Homework): Students will complete Long Division Word Problems
Differentiation Notes: Students in the lower 25 percentile will also be provided time Technology Integration:
 Word Processing
to practice multiplication facts and assignments will scaffold two-digit dividends and
 Power Point
building to 4-digit dividends.
