Length Division

This maths teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to practise using division number skills to identify and calculate measurements that are four, six and eight times shorter than different lengths in centimetres and millimetres.

The class can explain and model how to use times tables facts and repeated subtraction to express and record the matching quotients.

Download this teaching pack including classroom activities and an interactive presentation to practise using division number skills to identify and calculate measurements that are four, six and eight times shorter than different lengths in centimetres and millimetres

Activities in this teaching pack include a differentiated set of worksheets to select and divide different measurements in centimetres and millimetres to calculate lengths that are four, six or eight times shorter when using times tables facts and repeated subtraction to divide.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to use division number skills to identify and calculate measurements that are four, six and eight times shorter than different lengths.

This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to practise solving problems using division number skills to divide measurements for length, capacity and mass using a range of matching units. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
