1 Teaching the Lesson
� Math Message Follow-Up WHOLE-CLASSDISCUSSION
Counters are a useful tool for solving equal-sharing and equal-grouping division problems. Have partners act out the Math Message problem with 14 pennies. Ask volunteers to share their solution strategies. Some examples are listed below.
Strategy 1
Count out the pennies, 1 or 2 at a time, until each child has the same number of pennies or 1 penny is left over. For example, “One for you, one for me. Two for you, two for me....”
Strategy 2
Think in terms of multiplication: 2 × ? = 14.
Strategy 3
Use the basic division fact 14 ÷ 2 = 7. If 2 children share 14 pennies, then each child will get 7 pennies.
Draw a picture on the board to illustrate the solution. Record the solution as shown in the margin.
If children begin to use the terms even and odd to describe the number of pennies, encourage them to do so.
Getting Started
Math Message Leah and Matthew share 14 pennies equally. How many pennies does each child get?
Home Link 4�2 Follow-Up Have children share array illustrations they have found. Begin an Arrays Exhibit. Encourage children to keep looking for pictures of arrays.
Mental Math and ReflexesChildren count from 1 to 30, clapping at the intervals indicated below.
Every 5th number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (clap); 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 (clap); 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 (clap); and so on to 30

256 Unit 4 Multiplication and Division
NOTE The problem below is an example of
an equal-grouping situation: The number of
objects per group and the total number of
objects are known. The number of equal
groups is to be found. It is not important for
children to be able to distinguish between
equal-sharing and equal-grouping number
stories; it is important, however, that they
have experience with both types.

Leah and Matthew share 15 pennies equally.
� Solving Equal-Sharing WHOLE-CLASS ACTIVITY
Number Stories with CountersRepeat the Math Message activity with 15 pennies. Again, have children share strategies as you draw a picture and record the solution as shown in the margin. Discuss what happens: When pennies are shared equally, some pennies might be left over.
Pose other equal-sharing stories. Encourage children to use counters or draw pictures. Record the pictures and solutions on the board.
● 12 pennies, 3 children, 4 pennies per child, 0 remaining
● 15 pennies, 4 children, 3 pennies per child, 3 remaining
● 20 pennies, 6 children, 3 pennies per child, 2 remaining
● 18 band members are lined up in 3 equal rows. How many members are in each row? 6 members How many are left over? 0 members
Science Link Astronomers estimate that there are about 70 sextillion—7 with 22 zeros after it—stars in the
universe. To help children understand how big a number this is, explain that if all the people in the United States shared the stars equally, each person would have more than 230 trillion stars.
� Solving Equal-Grouping PARTNER ACTIVITY
Number StoriesPose the following problem to the class. Encourage children to use counters to solve it. Each child has 5 pennies. There are 30 pennies total. How many children have pennies? 6 children Have volunteers share their solution strategies. Some examples are listed below:
Strategy 1
Count out the pennies, 5 at a time to each child, until all of the pennies are distributed or it is not possible to make another group of 5. There are 6 groups of 5 pennies. There are no pennies left over.
Strategy 2
Think in terms of multiplication: 5 × ? = 30.
Strategy 3
Use the basic division fact 30 ÷ 5 = 6. If there are 30 pennies and each child has 5, then there must be 6 children.
Draw a picture on the board or use pennies on the overhead to illustrate the solution. Record the solution as shown in the margin.

How many paper clips will be in each box? Children use base-10 blocks to represent the paper clips. They use four pieces of paper to represent the boxes and distribute the blocks equally on the pieces of paper. Children will need to make trades: longs for flats and cubes for longs. They may use base-10 block shorthand to record solutions on a half-sheet of paper. There will be 163 paper clips in each box with 1 paper clip left over.
