What does that remainder mean?

HI everyone!  Thank you for checking in here for your homework.  Your lesson this afternoon is how to make sense of the remainder in a division problem.  Please click on the link below and read the page of the lesson, then click at the bottom for more review and practice with this idea.  Our early class work will include three of the problems on that review.  Be able to tell the three ways we can use a remainder.  Bringing in notes of your understanding is acceptable.  I can't wait to see you tomorrow.  I've missed you!
