Lesson One – Division Instructions

This maths teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to compose and test a set of instructions that can be followed to complete division calculations to model how to divide four by one digit numbers with no remainders.

The class can explain how to utilise calculations in the times tables to complete different steps when using the short division method to divide pairs of numbers.

Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to compose and test a set of instructions that can be followed to complete division calculations to model how to divide four by one digit numbers with no remainders

Activities in this teaching pack include a set of cards to select digits to use when modelling how to divide pairs of numbers and a template to model how to divide four by one digit numbers with no remainders using the short division method.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to compose and test calculation instructions about how to divide four by one digit numbers with no remainders.

This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to practise using the short division method to solve problems when dividing four by one digit numbers including quotients with remainders and the use of rounding to express solutions. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
