Building Understanding of the Number System Through
Hands-On Experiences

• Develop understanding and ideas to promote deeper understanding of the number system within the Common Core
• Develop hands-on strategies to build understanding of place value.
• Develop hands-on strategies to help promote understanding of fractions.
• Use tools to help students work fluently with rational numbers.
• Experience online tools for the number system
Outcomes for Today

I Have….. Who Has
• Let’s play!• What does this have to do with
learning?• Where does it fit the common core
standards?• What about the Standards of
Mathematical Practice?• Search I Have…Who Has online.

What does it mean to “do mathematics?”
The Standards of Mathematical Practice are descriptions of the fundamental skills needed to “do” mathematics.
Page 6
What does it mean to “do mathematics?”
• Standards of Practice describe what it means for students to demonstrate proficiency in mathematics. They are our new “basic skills.”
• Content Standards are the “what” of mathematics
Page 7
We must get past the idea of mathematics as a collection of algorithms, steps, or procedures. Just getting answers, although important, is not “doing mathematics.”

Multiplication and Division
• Identify strategies that individuals can use to solve multi-digit multiplication and division problems in sense-making ways
• Connect concepts to “standard algorithms”
• Discuss teaching strategies that enhance a child’s understanding

Understanding the abstract
Do you think that using base-10 blocks helps to give meaning to the multiplication algorithm? How?
One common concern when using models is that students will not make connections between the concrete models, their representations, and the mathematical concept. Did we make the connections? How?

American Idol is back! If they travel to 11 different cities and can only take a total of 132 people to Hollywood, how many people can be selected from each city?
How can we use the base ten block and the array model to help us with division?

Another Strategy for Division
Use of friendly or “benchmark” numbers
Partial quotient division:Multiplication for division – use what we know

Our family took a trip and my dad told me we drove a total of 2,112 miles in 6 days. How many miles per day did we travel on the average?
What friendly numbers did you use?

Fraction Using Cuisenaire Rods

• If we are trying to work with fourths and thirds what will our new whole need to be?
• Using Cuisenaire rods model:• 1/3 + 1/4• 1/3 - 1/4• 1/3 x 1/4• 1/3 ÷ 1/4
Page 29
Why do we invert and multiply to divide?
• How does this work?• ¾ ÷ 5/6= B• How many 5/6 are in ¾?• x 5/6 = ¾• B x 5/6 = ¾• I need to multiply 5/6 by its reciprocal to
solve for B or box.• B x 5/6 x 6/5 = ¾ x 6/5• B = ¾ x 6/5

·Charge Model
Use your positive/negative counters to represent the following numbers using at least the number of tiles listed.
You can challenge yourself by using more than the minimum number of tiles.
Be prepared to share and prove your solution.

·Linear Model
Matt earns merits and demerits at his school. One day he earned 3 merits for his math game, 2 demerits for being late to class, 1 merit for being courteous, 5 demerits for arguing with his teacher, and 2 merits for helping another student. If he began the day with 4 merits, how many did he have at the end of the day?

Model the following problems with your counters and sketch your work using a plus sign for positive and a negative sign for negative counters:
3 + 5 +3 + (-5) -3 + 5 -3 + (-5)
What do you notice? Make some generalizations about the rules for adding integers.
Now consider: -3 - (-5)
What generalization can you make?

Charge and Linear Model
Solve this problem using both methods:Heather started the month with $12. She spent $5 on a game, but realized that she forgot to pay her annual club dues so she wrote a check for $15 because her dad said he would loan her enough money to cover the check. How much does Heather have to borrow from her dad?
