This video addresses Indiana Academic Standard for Math 5.C.2: Describe the strategy and explain the reasoning used. Math education consultant Ryan Flessner helps educators envision the teaching and assessment of this standard in Grade 5.

In fourth grade students divided four-digit dividends by one-digit divisors. The fifth-grade standard extends this work to include division with two-digit divisors. Educators should continue to refrain from whole-class lessons related to the standard U.S. algorithm as this is a sixth-grade standard (6.C.1).

Lessons in Grade 5 should build on students’ concrete experiences and conceptual understandings from fourth grade. This means moving students beyond work with manipulatives such as base ten blocks to more efficient strategies such as ratio tables, area models, and the partial quotients algorithm. Assessments should capitalize on the use of multiple strategies while stressing communication of conceptual understandings (as opposed to following procedures dictated by the teacher).
