Peer reviewedIkeda, Hitoshi; Ando, Masue – Arithmetic Teacher, 1974
Descriptors: Algorithms, Elementary School Mathematics, Instruction, Manipulative Materials
Peer reviewedCacha, Frances B. – Arithmetic Teacher, 1975
A modified method of regrouping the minuend for subtraction is described. This more flexible method decreases the number of steps in the subtraction process and in checking the regrouping. (SD)
Descriptors: Algorithms, Elementary Education, Elementary School Mathematics, Instruction
Peer reviewedBates, Tom; Rousseau, Leo – Arithmetic Teacher, 1986
The mathematics associated with division is discussed, working from a theorem for the real division algorithm. Real-world, geometric, and algebraic approaches are discussed, as are related topics. (MNS)

Peer reviewedEttline, J. Fred – Arithmetic Teacher, 1985
Two difficulties that students have in computing with fractions are idenfitied. Then a procedure is described, stressing the identity element, that resolves these difficulties and increases students' understanding and retention. (MNS)
