Division

We are going to look at how we

can solve division questions

using an array.

Watch ‘Beginning Division:

using arrays’

Activity 1:

After watching the video,

complete worksheet ‘Division

using arrays’

Now we are going to explore

what happens when you can’t

share an amount equally.

When you solve a division

problem and there is an amount

leftover will call it a remainder

Watch ‘Array Division with

remainder ( Model Division)’

you would like your shape to be

(e.g. ½ or ¼) and colour as many

parts as you like. Afterwards

write down some information

about your fraction friend.

What shape are they?

How many parts have they got

in total?
