Computation Algorithms and Strategies Computation algorithm. A set of predefined steps
applicable to a class of problems that gives the correct result in every case when the steps are carried out correctly.
Computation strategy. Purposeful manipulations that may be chosen for specific problems, may not have a fixed order, and may be aimed at converting one problem into another. Special strategies. Either cannot be extended to all
numbers represented in the base-ten system or require considerable modification in order to do so.
General methods. Extend to all numbers represented in the base-ten system. A general method is not necessarily efficient. However, general methods based on place value are more efficient and can be viewed as closely connected with standard algorithms.
Invented StrategiesInvented strategies are flexible methods of computing that vary with the numbers and the situation. Successful use of the strategies requires that they be understood by the one who is using them – hence, the term invented. Strategies may be invented by a peer or the class as a whole; they may even be suggested by the teacher. However, they must be constructed by the student.
Strategies versus Algorithms
Computation Strategies
Number oriented Left-handed Flexible
Computation Algorithms
Digit oriented Right-handed “One right way”
Benefits of Strategies Students make fewer errors. Less re-teaching is required. Students develop number sense. Strategies are the basis for mental
computation and estimation. Flexible methods are often faster that the
traditional algorithms. Algorithm invention is itself a
significantly important process of “doing mathematics.”
Place Value Base-ten numeration system
Based on the principles of grouping and place value
Objects are grouped by tens, then by tens of tens (hundreds), and so on
As you move to the left in base ten numbers, the value of the place is multiplied by 10
Place value understandings underlie all computation strategies and algorithms
Computations Based on Place Value and Properties of Operations
Standard algorithms for base-ten computations rely on decomposing numbers written in base-ten notation into base-ten units
The properties of operations then allow any multi-digit computation to be reduced to a collection of single-digit computations which, in turn, sometimes require the composition or decomposition of a base-ten unit
Example:with 7 tens left over
(Note: Some students may need to break this into several steps.)

Supporting Research Findings
When students’ computation strategies reflect their understanding of numbers, understanding and fluency develop together.
Understanding is the basis for procedural fluency. Children can and do devise or invent strategies for
carrying out multi-digit computations. Students learn well from a variety of instructional
approaches. Sustained experience with select physical models may
be more effective than limited experience with a variety of different materials.
Conclusions Building algorithms on the strategies that student invent
promotes both understanding and fluency A focus on array and area models is likely to be effective
Creating an Environment for Inventing Strategies Expect and encourage student-to-student interactions,
discussions, and conjectures Celebrate when students clarify previous knowledge and
attempt to construct new ideas Encourage curiosity and an open mind to trying new things Talk about both right and wrong ideas in a non-evaluative
or non-threatening way Move unsophisticated ideas to more sophisticated thinking
through coaxing, coaching, and guided questioning Use contexts and story problems to capture student
interest Consider carefully whether you should step in or step back
when students are formulating new ideas (when in doubt – step back)
Bruner’s Stages of Representation
Enactive: Concrete stage. Learning begins with an action – touching, feeling, and manipulating.
Iconic: Pictorial stage. Students are drawing on paper what they already know how to do with the concrete manipulatives.
Symbolic: Abstract stage. The words and symbols representing information do not have any inherent connection to the information.
Allow understandings to develop through student invented or devised strategies for multi-digit division; do not begin by teaching the standard algorithms • Students should be able to understand and explain the
methods they invent• Prompt a variety of invented strategies by periodically
posing a division problem and having students solve the problem using two different strategies• Example: Solve 514 ÷ 8 in two different ways. Your
ways may converge in similar places but begin with different first steps – or they may be completely different.
• Encourage the use of visual representations such as area and array diagrams• These representations are known to further
understandings and facilitate explanations• Some teacher modeling may be necessary to ensure
productive application of arrays and area models
Build on fourth grade experiences with one-digit divisors and up to four digit dividends.
4.NBT.6. Find whole-number quotients and remainders with up to four-digit dividends and one-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.
• Students work individually or cooperatively to invent their own strategies.
• Explanations are grounded in knowledge of place value and multiplication properties (commutative, associative, and distributive).
• Continued use of rectangular arrays and area models is encouraged.

Fair-Sharing Strategy
736 ÷ 23
736 = 73 tens + 6 ones
23 × 3 tens = 69 tens with 4 tens left over
4 tens + 6 ones = 46 ones23 × 2 ones = 46 ones
So, 736 is shared among 23 groups, each consisting of 3 tens and 2 ones
Therefore, 736 ÷ 23 = 3 tens + 2 ones = 32

By reasoning repeatedly about the connection between math drawings and written numerical work (applications of invented computation strategies), students can come to see division algorithms as abbreviations or summaries of their reasoning about quantities.
This builds understandings requisite to content standard 6.NS.2 – Fluently divide multi-digit numbers using the standard algorithm.
A Problem-Solving Approach
Desirable Features ofProblem-Solving Tasks Genuine problems that reflect the goals of school
mathematics Motivating situations that consider students’ interests
and experiences, local contexts, puzzles, and applications
Interesting tasks that have multiple solution strategies, multiple representations, and multiple solutions
Rich opportunities for mathematical communication Appropriate content considering students’ ability levels
and prior knowledge Reasonable difficulty levels that challenge yet not
discourage
Problem Types Contextual Problems. Context
problems are connected as closely as possible to children’s lives, rather than to “school mathematics.” They are designed to anticipate and to develop children’s mathematical modeling of the real world.
Model Problems. The model is a thinking tool to help children both understand what is happening in the problem and a means of keeping track of the numbers and solving the problem.
Sample Problems Size of Group Unknown
The bag has 783 jellybeans. Aidan and her 28 classmates want to share them equally. How many jellybeans will Aidan and each of her classmates get?
Number of Groups Unknown Jumbo the elephant loves peanuts. His trainer has
736 peanuts. If he gives Jumbo 23 peanuts each day, how many days will the peanuts last?
Side Length Unknown Monique’s porch is rectangular in shape with an
