Cognitive
Objectives:
o The student will understand the
concept of division and its function.
o The student will learn the essential
division vocabulary of quotient,
dividend, divisor, and remainder.
o The student will understand the
division process for long division.

Behavioral Objectives:
o The student will listen to an online read-aloud and will respond to 3
journal entry questions accurately showing comprehension of the
audio text.
o Given a long division problem with all work displayed, the student
will accurately label the dividend, divisor, quotient, and remainder.
o The student will independently compute long division problems with
1 digit divisors and 3 digit dividends with 90% accuracy without
using notes.
o Given a long division word problem, the student will complete a
problem solving 4-square (paper is folded in 4 sections and labeled
Understand, Plan, Solve, and Interpret) accurately filling information
in the understand, plan, solve, and interpret boxes.

Students complete star
work in which they are
given a one star, two star,
and three star problem,
increasing in difficulty with
each level.
Teacher facilitates by
approving students’ correct
answers and allowing them
to pass on to the next star,
or providing guidance as
needed.
Students finishing early
can become peer helpers.


Students who did not complete the one star question will be
given practice worksheet 1 “Extra Practice” and will work
cooperatively with peers and instructor. Students will have
the long division process steps available at the table for
reference.
Students who ended on the two star question will be given
practice worksheet 2 “What’s My Error” and will work with
one other peer to complete the worksheet.
Students who ended on or achieved the three star question
will be given practice worksheet 3 “Missing Digit Division” to
complete independently.
