Methods for supporting development of standard algorithm for division
1. Partition or Fair share model asks students to "unpack the numbers" so they can see how to share them equitably into the sets. For example 583 divided by 4. When they take five hundreds, 8 tens and 3 ones they can begin to put them into four sets and see where they have to trade.
2. Partial quotients of facts they know or can derive along with a visual model of a bar diagram blended with repeated subtraction guides the process of share, record, record, trade.
3. Explicit-trade method matches the actual action of the models so students can see what is happening with they "bring down."
