Homework Check
Before students arrive, write a long division problem on the board, such as 6543 12. There may be a few chuckles and
comments when students see the problem because the skill was likely taught six or seven years earlier. Ask for a volunteer
to do the problem. The volunteer must talk aloud while doing the problem, explaining the process as he or she goes. Have
the student leave the answer with a remainder written as a fraction. (6543 12 = 545

12
check the answer: 545 x 12 + 3 = 6543. If the vocabulary of dividend, divisor, quotient, and remainder has not been used,
use it now to describe the process of checking the answer. Leave the students work on the board to refer to in this lesson
as
polynomials are1divided.

Another way to ask How many times does x2 go into 2x4? is What do you multiply x2 by to get 2x4?
Color-code each step as shown.
ASSESS
(5 minutes)
After
the divisor has been multiplied by a factor, remind students to subtract each term of the product.
Compare the steps to the long division problem from the Motivate.
Closure (as time permits)
Checking the answer takes much longer!
