Starting division by grouping
Lesson: Maths
Today (6.11.2020) we started to look at and investigate division (dividing 1 and 2 digit numbers by a 1 digit number) by sharing and grouping items. We learnt that division is the inverse of multiplication and that we can use our times tables knowledge to check our answers are correct. We found out that you can't divide some numbers equally and for division, it has to be equal. It was lots of fun to work with our away partner to decide which numbers can be divided easily. We also found out that all even numbers can always be divided by 2 and 24 can be divided 6 different ways!
