Grade 5 Multi-Digit Multiplication & Division

Help 5th graders multiply and divide multi-digit numbers with confidence, and know exactly what to do with a remainder on test day!

This Louisiana LEAP-aligned unit covers 5.NBT.B.5 (multiplying multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm) and 5.NBT.B.6 (dividing up to 4-digit numbers by 1- and 2-digit divisors). Students learn the Crack the Test Co. Crack the Problem Method: identify the math terms, choose the operation, check real-world sense, and eliminate wrong answers, so they stop guessing and start reasoning.

Three Code Cards build understanding step by step: partial products and the standard algorithm, long division with area models, and the skill students miss most often, interpreting remainders (when to round up, when to drop the remainder, and when to report it). Every problem is set in a Louisiana context, from shrimp boats to sugar cane to pecan farms.
