Grade 5
It is essential that these standards be addressed in contexts
that promote problem solving, reasoning, communication, making connections, and
designing and analyzing representations.
Problem Solving Links
5.2 Number and
Operations and Algebra: Develop an understanding of and fluency
with division of whole numbers.
5.2.1
Apply understanding of models for division (e.g., equal-sized groups, arrays,
area models, equal intervals on the number line) and the relationship of
division to multiplication to solve problems.
5.2.2
Apply concepts of place value and the properties of operations to solve
problems involving division.
5.2.3
Select and use appropriate estimation strategies for division (e.g., use
benchmarks, overestimate, underestimate, round) to calculate mentally based on
the problem situation when computing with whole numbers.
5.2.4
Develop and use accurate, efficient, and generalizable methods to find
quotients for multi-digit division problems.
5.2.5
Develop fluency with efficient procedures for dividing whole numbers and
justify why the procedures work on the basis of place value and number
properties.
5.2.6
Determine the most appropriate form of the quotient and interpret the remainder
in a problem situation.
