Divide by 8 Prior Learning
Worksheet
We've already ascertained that nothing good can come from dividing by 8, but in order to master such a necessary evil, it is important to make sure children are comfortable with the steps that lead up to dividing by 8. As such, this resource - the Year 3 Divide by 8 consolidation resource - focuses on the previously learned steps of dividing by 2, dividing by 4 and making equal groups through grouping - all imperative skills in the journey to dividing by 8. The worksheet is made up of 6 questions (it really should have been split into 8, but there you go): three varied fluency and three problem-solving and reasoning. And if you do work out when dividing by 8 is a good skill to have (not useful, good), let us know. Because I still haven't.
Curriculum Objectives
- Recall and use multiplication and division facts for the 2, 5 and 10 multiplication tables, including recognising odd and even numbers
- Calculate mathematical statements for multiplication and division within the multiplication tables and write them using the multiplication (×), division (÷) and equals (=) signs
- Solve problems involving multiplication and division, using materials, arrays, repeated addition, mental methods, and multiplication and division facts, including problems in contexts
- Show that multiplication of two numbers can be done in any order (commutative) and division of one number by another cannot
- Recall and use multiplication and division facts for the 3, 4 and 8 multiplication tables
- Write and calculate mathematical statements for multiplication and division using the multiplication tables that they know, including for two-digit numbers times one-digit numbers, using mental and progressing to formal written methods
- Solve problems, including missing number problems, involving multiplication and division, including positive integer scaling problems and correspondence problems in which n objects are connected to m objects
