Division: Sharing Equally: what children learn
Division can mean sharing equally: 12 stickers shared into 3 groups gives 4 in each group because 3 × 4 = 12.
Division: Sharing Equally: worked example
Share 12 stickers equally into 3 groups. How many stickers are in each group? 4
12 ÷ 3 = 4, because 3 groups of 4 make 12.
Division: Sharing Equally: a common mistake to watch for
Kids sometimes give the number of groups as the answer instead of the number in each group.
Division: Sharing Equally: how to help at home or in class
Deal real objects, such as raisins or cards, one at a time into cups, just like dealing a hand of cards, until none are left. Ask how many are in each cup before counting. Then change the number of cups while keeping the pile the same and notice how each share changes. When your child can predict the share before dealing, move on to asking how many groups can be made.
