Exploring Instruction Board Techniques - Part 1

In this video, the teacher continues the lesson on strip diagrams, focusing on their use in solving division problems. Two methods are introduced: the 'one for you' method, where the total is divided into known groups, and the 'chunking' method, where the amount in each group is known. An example problem involving dividing an apple pie among four people is used to illustrate these methods. The video guides students in choosing the right method and solving the problem step-by-step, emphasizing the relationship between multiplication and division.
