Help! We Are Working on Long Division!

We have started long division!  Yikes!  Although, many of us were introduced to it last year, we are still needing a lot of practice!  It would be great if you could help your student at night.  Right now we are working on multiple digits divided by single digit (4762 divided by 5 for example).  We use the algorithm:

Divide
Multiply
Subtract
Compare
Bring Down

You can help your student practice and become more confident by making up some problems and having them work through them with you.  Let me know if you have any quetions. :)
