Division

One important aspect of mathematics is interpreting the meaning of the numbers in the different operations. Van De Walle, Karp, Bay- Williams, (2013) emphasize the importance of developing meaning, interpretations, and relations to the four operations to help students integrate mathematical skills into the real world. For division, teachers should help students identify and use different meanings of remainders to help the learners understand and apply different rules. As students become knowledgeable of the different meanings that the remainder possesses they will be able to interpret the quotient in different ways. Throughout this paper, I will describe the different interpretations of the remainders and division problems using various examples.…

Division of labor occurs when the work process is separated into a various number of tasks. Each worker or group of workers then specializes in completing a single task. It is used in mass production and is considered “one of the basic organizing principles of the assembly line. (Britannica, 2014). Specialization via division of labor has helped to eliminate the need for workers to handle multiple tools and minimized unnecessary motion. Through the repetition of simple basic tasks by…

The 3d Marine Division was in the process of shifting north from Quang Nam and Thua Thien Provinces to Quang Tri Province. At the same time, the 1st Marine Division was redistributing its forces in the corridor between Phu Bai and Da Nang. This overall redeployment of the Marine forces was about three-quarters completed when the North Vietnamese offensive began. Task Force X-Ray, under the command of Brigadier General Foster “Frosty” C. LaHue did not assume responsibility for the Phu Bai…

were more passionate and prideful, but not as kind and less accepting of different kinds of people. Specifically, white people in the south were very racist, and this, in addition to giving America a sense of division regionally, gave America a sense of division racially. In fact, in New Orleans, Steinbeck attended an event where ladies called Cheerleaders protested black students entering a school, being very hateful and racist throughout. Another example of racial division in America in…

For example, in our third pre-assessment question, which had a word problem and the students had to write an equation based on that problem, none of the students answered it correctly. We saw misconceptions such as adding, subtracting, or multiplying fractions rather than the division that we were looking for. Within our lesson the students will be engaged due to the focus question being given as to how to correctly break apart a word problem. By having a focus question, the students will want…

storied heritage of excellence by being a contributing member of the division. In order to complete the change from its current state to a well-respected unit, I would execute a blended version of the seven-step vision process with John Kotter’s eight-stage model to create successful and lasting change. First, I would begin with conducting an initial assessment of the brigade prior to taking command, which is the first step in the seven-step vision process. From this initial…

Three brigades near Pigeon Hill, Little Kennesaw and Big Kennesaw was the main assault force of the Army of Tennessee. On the right was Lightburn’s Brigade on his left, attacking the northern side of Burnt Hickory Road against the slopes of Pigeon Hill was Smith’s brigade. On Smith’s Left was Walcutt’s brigade that was aiming for the ground between Pigeon Hill and Little Kennesaw. These three brigades consisted of a total of 5500 men. The Day before the battle Smith’s division had camped…

On the 17th of September, 1862 at approximately seven o’clock in the morning, Brigadier General Willis Gorman of the Union army began mobilizing his units as part of Major General Sedgwick’s division to assault the Confederate defenses in the West Wood. Gorman’s brigade was the first brigade of the second division under Major General John Sedgwick who was under the command of Major General Edwin V. Sumner, commander of the Second Army Corps. This narrative will discuss the events that took…

The 28th Infantry Division, what there was of it, was in full tactical retreat, heading south towards Washington D.C., they hoped to hook up with any leading elements of the 3rd Infantry Regiment.
