This video demonstrates how to use the lattice division strategy. The lattice division strategy eliminates the requirement to use automatic recall of facts, such as in the partial quotient strategy, but this strategy requires that students follow a very specific set of steps. Careful use of the lattice is required. The lattice strategy partitions numbers into smaller parts and it may not be an efficient strategy for students to use if they do not understand how division works. To use this strategy, students should have a solid understanding of place value and dividing large quantities in equal groups.

This video illustrates the use of manipulatives to help students practice correspondence and tracking objects as objects are counted in different ways. When children understand that objects may be counted in any order (e.g., left-to-right, right-to-left, in a random fashion) they have developed an understanding of the order irrelevance counting principle. Counting objects in many different ways also allows students to practice tracking objects as the objects are counted to make sure that each objects is counted once and only once, regardless of the order in which the object is counted.
This video illustrates the use of manipulatives to help students develop fluency in counting by tens and ones.
This video illustrates the use of manipulatives to help students integrate the concept of counting by ones with skill in grouping by tens.
This video illustrates the use of an efficient counting on strategy that students may practice to solve simple subtraction problems without the use of manipulatives.
This video shows how manipulatives can be used to explain subtraction using a part-part-whole structure.
This video illustrates how manipulatives can be used to show the relation between strategies for subtraction and addition.
This video uses manipulatives to review the five counting principles including stable order, correspondence, cardinality, abstraction, and order irrelevance.
This video shows how manipulatives can be used to explain division problems that have a fair-share or equal partition problem structure. This example demonstrates how manipulatives can be used to show how repeated subtraction (i.e., when the whole is decreased iteratively by equal sets) can be used in division to determine the size of the equal set. When students have many practice opportunities to solve division problems with strategies such as repeated subtraction, they develop a solid conceptual understanding that division represents partitioning a quality into groups of equivalent sets.
This video illustrates the use of manipulatives to help students practice counting skills such as identifying a set within a set of objects, correspondence, and counting on in order to determine the cardinality of a set of objects.
