So happy to help, Dani! I randomly made this video for a friend who was struggling with teaching long division to her 4th graders. I never thought anyone else would watch it. : )
Thank you SOO much for posting this!! My daughter was instructed to use this method on her homework, but she didn't understand, and I had never seen it before. Your help gave her the biggest smile I've seen when homework is involved :) Thanks for helping it "Click" for the both of us!!
I am a homeschooler, my son is reluctant to division because he couldn't understand what was happening.... VIOLA! He gets it, he gets it!!! Honestly, I never understood the algorithm, though I did pretty well in school, WAY back in the day.... Thank you from both of us! Best explanation I've ever seen on division!
Kelly: This was, by far, the best video on the base10 block for divisions. The concept is now really easy to share with kids that do not yet understand it. My 4th grader is no longer afraid of divisions. Even I can now do mental division with large numbers. I hope Kelly has posted more of her math videos on UA-cam. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you so much for this video, we struggled with my 5th graders math for 3 hours tonight because I couldn't understand his notes! This is a life saver🙂
This was very helpful! I am a college student studying to be an early childhood teacher, so this was exactly what I needed in order to better understand how to use base ten blocks with division.
I swear, with Covid and schools closed parents are having to explain this stuff to their child. Honestly I never learned this way. Amd school shut down to quick for my daughter to learn. I had her watch this video as her school work asks her to show her work using base 10 blocks... she didn't need help after watching. Amazing explanation even years later!
This is the perfect explanation...not only have you helped your friend, a 4th grade teacher, but me too, a math tutor/para-educator/B.A. Elem.Ed student!
I'm 41 (but on my daughters account) and trying to help my 10 year old with this math. I wish I had you as my teacher when I was a kid, because now I also understand this by how well you taught it. Thank you.
This is so beautifully explained! I watched five other videos first but your energy, clarity, straight forward way of going through the problem was simply the best! You got talent!
Hello, I'm learning to teach math and I found this video super helpful, I was only taught the algorithm in elementary school and this makes what's actually happening so much more clear. Thank you!
Hi Kelly, I am in a Post Grad. course in Primary (elementary) teaching here in Perth, Western Australia. This is a FANTASTIC video. You've done a great job. My main thing is: here you are doing something positive for the world, and still these dropkicks have nothing to do but put you down, as though they could do a better job. Pay no mind to them - as educators, WE know about the global decline in Numeracy and Literacy, which has been the impetus for us to find new means of illustrating maths concepts. As I said, never mind these mean individuals: their comments say more about them than about you B)
I really appreciate this video. As a 6th grade teacher who has to review long division with students I wish more lower grade teachers would teach this way. The only thing that could be better is to use actual base 10 blocks, but that is difficult through a youtube video. You may use base 10 blocks in your classroom for all I know. Great job.
Hello, thank you for teaching me how to do this, normally I just do long division without this confusing stuff but I have a test on October 9/10 and I had to learn how to do this because I knew they were gonna ask this on the test, after watching this video and doing it on the test I got a 96! Thank you so much ma'am
This is so neat! I teach 5th grade math, and I was trying to google ways to use base 10 blocks. I think you did a superb job explaining it! I am really excited to try this technique!
I am a public school teacher in Texas and adjunct professor for a Methods of Teaching EC-6 Math course at Texas Woman's University. I love this video so much! For this upcoming term, I would like permission to upload your video to my password-protected Canvas course for captioning and use with my students for educational purposes.Thank you in advance for your consideration.
So glad you found this helpful! I made this video for a friend and only posted on UA-cam because the file was too big to email back then, so I do not plan to make more videos.
Here’s a free counting base ten block worksheet I created when I was student teaching. Here’s the link for the free download www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Counting-Base-Ten-Blocks-FREE-4471173
i don't get it... but it is useful to someone people, but i really really don't get the one on the side, my teacher needs me to do that for todays homework :( ahh i don't know how to do that
it's the same as this way, but with 12 circles instead. or you could just do the long division and get a remainder of or move into tenths, hundreths, thousandths, etc.
Instead of "bringing down" the 3 (and subsequently 2), it may be clearer if you wrote 400 (not just 4 in the hundreds column), and then subtracted the 400, to show 132 remains etc.
Agreed! Showing place value can definitely be helpful. In this video I was trying to bring understanding to the traditional algorithm used in the United States but I like using the scaffolding method with students because it reinforces the idea of place value and repeated subtraction.
GREAT! Kelly, you might draw a picture & show the rectangle is 4 across & 133 down; for a problem like this it would be fast & EZ to use four 100 strips, two 10s, & 12 units...then they can really SEE that that division sign is short hand for rectangle & if one side is 4 & the whole thing is 532, then the other side HAS TO BE 133... Check out my blog & website showing division & percentages algebra too! Especially the algebra...& not just x², 3rd & 4th power too. Just search Crewton Ramone
Hi, Cameron! Sorry this video didn't help. Try searching other videos for long division with base ten blocks or perhaps try a completely different method for dividing such as the scaffolding method.
Good explanation, but I don’t understand why , schools are complicating division.. think all these , blocks & stuff , just confuses kids .. Because , I had no clue what base 10 blocks etc . Was , I mean , divide & remainders .. easy fast , think school’s curriculum needs to be , updated . Just my .02 cents lol , Thxs for the video
I agree @Joe McAveley but need to assist scholars in the way they are learning... I prefer the old skool way.. less work & much simpler.. couldnt get it until I seen this video... thxs @kellyheartmath
Wow, no wonder my daughter is lost. This is utterly ridiculous. They are making things much more confusing. Parents cannot help their kids and kids are lost because they are drawing pictures in math, as opposed to using actual numbers. The standard long division method is not confusing at all. It is incredibly straight-forward. If kids don't understand traditional long division....PRACTICE!! And practice more. There are no shortcuts in math and I wish our system would finally realize that. No wonder schools are performing so poorly. And I'm stuck on UA-cam trying to learn this nonsense. Thanks for trying to explain though. I'm grateful there's something to view, since I'm forced to learn this stuff for my daughter.
§paethon i feel the same exact way. Oh wait till you have to find out how to do a multiplication box grid to find the answer to what would be a simple multiplication problem. This is insane!!!
@@andreacarrillo9449 have you seen how they have to grid out to get area yet? instead of x*y=z, it's x+y+x+y=z. turned a simple multiplication problem into a 4 part addition problem.
This is absolutely the most confusing way ever to find the answer. I did old school division and had the answer in seconds. No flipping wonder our children are confused beyond belief!
@twistedblktrekie i did the math that she showed in long division form in my head faster than you could've entered it into a calculator. this shit is just ridiculous.
@twistedblktrekie yes, and my 10yr old daughter was doing decimal division with 10 blocks, and had the answer in her head doing it the way we were taught without writing it or any blocks down. this common core math just takes too long, imho.
there's at least 3 teachers on here thanking her for explaining it to them or making a video they can show in class to their kids. must be nice to know teachers have to use a video to explain something to their class because they don't understand it either. and one even called us mean for voicing our opinions on this type of math.

Your video is exceptional! It is so much better to understand the reasons why when it comes to math instead of just learning it by rote. Thank you!
Thank you!!! I didn't know how to connect the base ten blocks with the algorithm. I think this will help students so much. Long division is no joke!
I'm 41 (but on my daughters account) and trying to help my 10 year old with this math. I wish I had you as my teacher when I was a kid, because now I also understand this by how well you taught it. Thank you.

Hello, I'm learning to teach math and I found this video super helpful, I was only taught the algorithm in elementary school and this makes what's actually happening so much more clear. Thank you!
I just starting teaching math. This is a powerful way to connect place value with division. Thanks for posting.

Hi, I just want to tell you, thanks so much for your tutorial video about math.
Omg…you brought the passion to teach math back.
Hello, thank you for teaching me how to do this, normally I just do long division without this confusing stuff but I have a test on October 9/10 and I had to learn how to do this because I knew they were gonna ask this on the test, after watching this video and doing it on the test I got a 96! Thank you so much ma'am
Thank you, I never used this method in school, and this helped me figure out how to help our daughter get this with her homework.
Awesome video!! I am teaching sixth grade and the majority of my students cannot do long division. This is video is very helpful !!
Amazing! This will be so helpful with my grade sixes who just can't quite grasp the process of long division! :)
YOU ARE AN AMAZING TEACHER! That was so well explained! Good job! I don't feel stupid looking at these when I check my students' homework. Haha.
This is so neat! I teach 5th grade math, and I was trying to google ways to use base 10 blocks. I think you did a superb job explaining it! I am really excited to try this technique!
I love math it keeps you in good health and help you with the prices when you are shopping
Great reminder and helps me with my fourth grader's homework.
Wow! This helped me understand conceptually why division works! Thank you! Now I know!
I'm a Maths teacher and I really like this video!
I am a public school teacher in Texas and adjunct professor for a Methods of Teaching EC-6 Math course at Texas Woman's University. I love this video so much!

Of course! You are welcome to use it.
I was always so confused by the stupid arrows and crossing them off… now it all makes sense 😂
This is absolutely amazing! Thank you for doing this. Are you planning on doing more videos at the elementary level. This is such a great resource!
So glad you found this helpful! I made this video for a friend and only posted on UA-cam because the file was too big to email back then, so I do not plan to make more videos.
I saw this video in my classroom on monday! It is very helpful for my homework in 4th grade!!
im in 4th grade ;-;
im in fifth grade
squirtles!!! profile pics
Ayano Aishi I know right
Ayano Aishi Im in 3rd grade
great video, thanks! I cannot believe that anyone would give this a thumbs down.......
Great Video you helped my little sister tremendously!! Thank you very much.
THANK YOU! My son this home and I was totally lost.
Thank you for this video. It helped my daughter and me begin to understand the concept of base-ten blocks. #COVIDmomisnowtheteacher
This is wonderful!
Thank you so much! Great explanation!
My mom said you should make more! It's helping me [mostly her] lol. My teacher is very hard because I'm in 5th grade!
Wow This is so helpful. I wish I had a teacher like you :o.
A+ for my 9 year old! Thank you very much :-)
I'm in college and I wish you were my teacher.
great way of showing us
This was a great video! Very helpful!
Thank you so much! I hope you find this method as useful as I have. : )
This video was very helpful. Thank you.
Awesome
Thanks this helped us alot👏👏
Love you video!
GREAT JOB I WISH I WAS THAT SMART!!!!!

this helped a lot
How do you divide 156 divided by 12 please do it on your next viedo
it's the same as this way, but with 12 circles instead. or you could just do the long division and get a remainder of or move into tenths, hundreths, thousandths, etc.
This helps alot
THANK YOU GOD BLESS YOU 🤗😉🤗😉🤗😉😂YOU ARE MY HERO

I like this method
Lots of help
dodnt get it :(
Very good i smat now
Thanks so much i pased muy home work god bless you
cool
I don't get it at all
Hi, Cameron! Sorry this video didn't help. Try searching other videos for long division with base ten blocks or perhaps try a completely different method for dividing such as the scaffolding method.
same, lol
Good explanation, but I don’t understand why , schools are complicating division.. think all these , blocks & stuff , just confuses kids .. Because , I had no clue what base 10 blocks etc . Was , I mean , divide & remainders .. easy fast , think school’s curriculum needs to be , updated .
Just my .02 cents lol , Thxs for the video
that's easy for my kid thanks
I wanted you to do a diffrent kindof method its kind like what you did
I agree @Joe McAveley but need to assist scholars in the way they are learning... I prefer the old skool way.. less work & much simpler.. couldnt get it until I seen this video... thxs @kellyheartmath
Thank you
😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸
Ahhhhhh do it the old school wat

JUST DIVIDE LIKE A NORMAL PERSON
GOD DAMNIT
Yeah, don't give kids a visual that will help them understand why long division works! Just teach them the algorithm and hope everyone understands!
how you do that 😆😆😆😆
So there is a teacher commenting on here.! Even you don't understand common core? If you don't how can us parents!!???
there's at least 3 teachers on here thanking her for explaining it to them or making a video they can show in class to their kids. must be nice to know teachers have to use a video to explain something to their class because they don't understand it either. and one even called us mean for voicing our opinions on this type of math.
easy
i kinda hate math
U make it horrible....
NOT HELPFULL AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OLD SCHOOL IS EASY
