Worksheet Preview
A four-step cycle you repeat
Long division can feel like a lot of steps, but it’s really one short cycle repeated: divide, multiply, subtract, bring down. Each pass finds one digit of the answer. Keeping the digits lined up in the right columns is what keeps the whole process honest.
How to use it
Say the cycle aloud as students work: “How many times does it go in? Multiply. Subtract. Bring down.” The most common slips are forgetting to bring down the next digit and misplacing a quotient digit. Students can check by multiplying the quotient by the divisor. Builds on division facts.
👩🏫 Teacher note
Anchor the four-step cycle: divide, multiply, subtract, bring down - repeat. Have students check each quotient by multiplying it by the divisor.
🏠 Parent note
Use the steps: how many times does it go in? multiply, subtract, bring down the next digit, and repeat.
Common Mistakes to Watch For
- Forgetting to bring down the next digit
- Placing a digit of the quotient in the wrong column
