FactualConceptual
A constant application of multiplication by 10 to obtain the next higher unit, or division by 10 to obtain the next lower unit, demonstrates 10 as the constant rate/factor of composing and decomposing place value units in our decimal system (MA10-GR.5-S.1-GLE.1-EO.a.i, a.ii, b.i, b.ii) / What is the relationship between 654 and 65.4?
10 times greater or less
What would it mean if we did not have a place value system?
Numbers would have no value; History of Zero and Place Value
What is the purpose of the decimal point? To separate the whole numbers from the parts of a whole. / Why is dividing by 10 the equivalent to multiplication by 1/10?
1/10=.1 one tenth. Dividing by 10 you are dividing by tenths
How does understanding our place value system help to read, write and compare decimals? It gives order and value to our number system.
Multiplication or division by a power of 10 increases or decreases their place value to a magnitude equivalent to the power of 10 (MA10-GR.5-S.1-GLE.1-EO.a.i, a.ii)
So, each time we need to show a bigger number we just add one columnto the leftand we know it is always10 times biggerthan the column on its right. / What is the purpose of our place value system? (MA10-GR.5-S.1-GLE.1-IQ.3) To give numbers value and a specific place in our system. Think about $. Would you rather have $32 or $324? How do you know one is worth more than the other? / Why is a place value system beneficial? (MA10-GR.5-S.1-GLE.1-IQ.1) It gives our numbers an order and value and worth. Otherwise our numbers would have no meaning.
Why do you move the decimal point two places to the right when multiply 100 and two places to the left when dividing by 100? 2 zeros in 100= 2 places holders= move 2 places.
Multiplying makes numbers larger and dividing makes them smaller.
In the standard algorithm for multiplication of whole numbers, the power of 10 represented by the place value of the digit multiplier determines the corresponding amount to shift the partial products to the left (MA10-GR.5-S.1-GLE.2-EO.a) / What makes one strategy or algorithm better than another? (MA10-GR.5-S.1-GLE.2-IQ.2) Speed and accuracy
How many place values does the partial product shift when multiplying by the digit in the hundreds place? 2 / Why do you shift partial products over one place value when multiplying by the digit in the tens place? You are moving from the ones to the tens place. You are enlarging the number 10 times greater therefore you need a place holder.
Place value, properties of operations and the relationship between multiplication and division support the division of multi-digit numbers. (MA10-GR.5-S.1-GLE.2-EO.b) / How is multiplication used when dividing multi-digit numbers? To determine how many times the divisor goes into the dividend.
What is the role of place value in the division algorithm? / How does the relationship between multiplication and division support division when using the standard algorithm? (MA10-GR.5-S.1-GLE.2-IQ.1) Since they are inverse operations, you can use them to solve for the other and check answers.
As with the rounding of whole numbers, the accurate rounding of decimals depends upon place value concepts and an attention to context (MA10-GR.5-S.1-GLE.1-EO.c) / How do you round a decimal number to the nearest hundredth? Look at the thousandths, 1 place to the right, and follow the same rounding rules. 5+ round up, 4- stays the same. / How is rounding of decimal numbers similar and different from rounding whole numbers? Use same methods, but sometimes the decimal rounds up to a whole number and a whole number never rounds down to a decimal.
The algorithm for the addition and subtraction of decimals, a simple extension of the algorithm for whole numbers, requires precise attention to place value such that digits with corresponding place values are aligned prior to joining or separating (MA10-GR.5-S.1-GLE.2-EO.c) / How many tenths make one whole? 10
How many hundredths make a whole? 100
How many thousandths make a whole? 1,000 / Why is it important that digits with the same place value are aligned when adding or subtracting using the standard algorithm? To keep the math problem in the same value. You would not want the values to get mixed up.
The algorithm for multiplication of decimals relies on the equivalence of a decimal to a corresponding fraction with a denominator that is a power of ten (MA10-GR.5-S.1-GLE.2-EO.c) / How do you determine the location of the decimal point in the product of two decimal numbers? Count how many place values are behind each decimal to move the decimal over that many place values. / How does multiplication of fractions justify the standard algorithm for multiplication of decimals? Fractions and decimals are parts of a whole so they are equivalent, just in different forms.
The algorithm for the division of decimals dictates that the decimal point in the dividend correspond to the location of the decimal point in the quotient and when a decimal appears in the divisor both divisor and dividend both must be multiplied by the same power of ten to eliminate it (MA10-GR.5-S.1-GLE.2-EO.c) / When using the standard algorithm for division, what strategy provides a method for handling division of decimals? The strategy the student is most comfortable with. / Why does the multiplication of the divisor and dividend by the same power of ten create an equivalent division problem? (hint: a/b is the same as a divided by b) Multiplication is the inverse operation of division.
Universal order of operation ensures uniformity and accuracy of solutions. (MA10-GR.5-S.1-GLE.2-EO.d) / What is the order of operations? P E M D A S
Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally
Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction / Why does order of operations matter? The system ensures the correct answer every time.

Critical Language: includes the Academic and Technical vocabulary, semantics, and discourse which are particular to and necessary for accessing a given discipline.
EXAMPLE: A student in Language Arts can demonstrate the ability to apply and comprehend critical language through the following statement: “Mark Twain exposes the hypocrisy of slavery through the use of satire.”
A student in ______can demonstrate the ability to apply and comprehend critical language through the following statement(s): / When converting a 42 centimeters to meters, I first need to remember there are 100 centimeters in 1 meter. This means I will need to divide 42 centimeters by 100 to find out the equivalent number of meters, because I am dividing by a power of ten the digits will remain the same in my answer I simply move the decimal point two places to the left because 100 is 102, thus the answer is 0.42 meters.
