Practical Maths
Posted: Jan 25, 2023 by: Katie Pape (kpape) on: Year 3 Class Blog
This week in Maths we have been learning how to divide 2 digit numbers by a 1 digit number with remainders. To introduce remainders, the children were given a certain amount of lollipop sticks to create simple 2D shapes. They then had to see how many lollipop sticks were remaining and create division number sentences to demonstrate their working out. We then moved onto using manipulatives and pictorial representations to solve division problems. This was a challenge for all the children to begin with but with perseverance and practice the light bulb moments were buzzing around the classroom!
