Description:

Students will be able to find whole-number quotients, with or without remainders, using strategies based on properties of operations and the relationship between multiplication and division.

Mnemonic devices are one of the many useful strategies students can use to help them complete complex tasks.  In the case of long division, simply remembering the members of a family can help students complete whole number division problems.
