To use “Sticks & Stones”,start with a long division problem. 5e595 Honestly, “Sticks & Stones” is GREAT!
5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 Next, list the first 9 multiples of the divisor. 5e595 5 The DIVISORis the number that does the dividing.
5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 Now look at the first digit of the dividend. 5e595 5 The DIVIDEND is the number that is being divided.
_ 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 Since you can take 1 multiple out of this digit, draw 1 “stick” under it. _ 5e595 5
1 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 Since you drew 1 “stick”, place a 1 on top to represent it. _ 5e595 5 I cannot tell a lie. “Sticks & Stones” is the BEST !
1 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 Bring down the next number. _ 5e595 9 i
_ 1 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 You can take 1 multiple out of this number, so draw 1 “stick” . _ 5e595 i _ Wait, that only takes out “5”. What about the rest of the “9”? 9
1 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 Count up from the last “stick” (5) and draw a “stone” for each remaining number until you reach 9. This “stick” equals 5! _ 5e595 i _ 9 . . . . 6 7 8 9
1 1 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 Place a 1 on top to represent the 1 “stick” that you drew, then put a 4 underneath the “stones”. _ 5e595 Where did the “4” come from? i _ 9 . . . . 4
1 1 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 The 4 comes from the 4 “stones that were drawn. _ 5e595 Where did the “4” come from? i _ 9 . . . . 4
1 1 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 Now bring down the last digit. _ 5e595 5 i i _ i 9 . . . . i 4 “Sticks & Stones” is better than pizza!
_ 1 1 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 Draw 1 “stick” for every multiple you can take out of the number. _ _ _ 5e595 _ i i _ _ i 9 _ . . . . i _ __ 4 5 __ _ __ __ _ __ __ __ __ __
1 1 9 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 Place a “9” on top to represent the number of “sticks” drawn. _ 5e595 i i _ i 9 . . . . i __ 4 5 __ __ __ “Sticks & Stones” is a real gift! __ __ __ __ __
1 1 9 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 Since there are no more numbers to bring down, you are finished! _ 5e595 i i _ i 9 . . . . i __ 4 5 __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __
4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 First, list the multiples of the divisor (the number doing the dividing). 4e219 4
4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 Now look at the first digit in the dividend (the number being divided). 4e219 2 Hey! That number is too small to be divided by 4!
4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 That’s right! So now you will have to look at the first 2digits together! 4e219 2 1 Hey! That number is too small to be divided by 4!
4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 Now draw 1 “stick” for each multiple that you can remove from the number 21. 4e219 2 1 Hmmm…I can go all the way up to 20, so I can draw 5 sticks!
4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 4 Now draw 1 “stick” for each multiple that you can remove from the number 21. 8 __ 4e219 2 1 __ 12 __ __ 16 __ 20 Hmmm…I can go all the way up to 20, so I can draw 5 sticks!
4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 Hmmm… those 5 “sticks” only took us up to 20…How do we get to 21? __ 4e219 2 1 __ __ __ __
4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 That’s right, count on from 20 until we reach 21, and draw a “stone” for each number. __ 4e219 2 1 __ __ __ __ . These 5 “sticks” represent 20. This “stone” makes 21.
5 4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 Now, place a “5” on top to represent the 5 “sticks”. __ 4e219 __ __ __ __ . Place a “1” below to represent the “stone”. 1
5 4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 Hmmmm…What should we do next? __ 4e219 9 __ __ __ __ i . Oh yes, bring down the next number! i 1
5 4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 4 Ok…now what? 8 __ 4e219 __ 12 __ __ 16 That’s it, draw a “stick” for each multiple you can take out of 19. __ i . i __ 1 9 __ __ __
5 4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 That took us to 16… now what? __ 4e219 __ __ __ __ i Oh yes, count on from 16 while drawing “stones” . i __ 1 9 __ __ __ . . . 17 18 19
5 4 4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 Now, count the “sticks” and put the number on top. __ 4e219 __ __ __ __ i . Then count the “stones” and place the number below. i __ 1 9 __ __ __ . . . 3
5 4 4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 There are no more numbers to bring down, so you are finished dividing. __ 4e219 __ __ __ __ i . i __ 1 9 __ __ __ . . . 3
5 4 Because there are no numbers left to bring down, the “3” is the remainder. r __ 4e219 __ __ __ __ i . i __ 1 9 __ __ __ What about that “3” left at the bottom? . . . 3 3
