Allow children to develop and consolidate their understanding of division and place value skills with this Year 6 Divide by 10, 100 and 1,000 resource. We've created two problem solving style questions and one reasoning style question, with two examples of each question type, for children to put their knowledge to the test. This resource has been differentiated three ways to support all learners. See below for a brief outline of how our differentiation challenges children of all abilities:

Developing: Questions include dividing numbers with up to 1 decimal place by 10, 100 and 1,000 with some use of zero. 

Expected: Questions include dividing numbers with up 2 decimal places by 10, 100 and 1,000 with some use of zero. 

Greater Depth: Questions include dividing numbers with up to 2 decimal places by multiples of 10, 100 and 1,000 where numbers include zeros. Some questions include dividing by multiples of these numbers or converting between units of measure.

Use this resource in class as part of children's independent learning time following a set of varied fluency style questions. Alternatively, you could incorporate this into an intervention programme with a small, adult-led group to further develop children's skills or offer more support where needed. A fully explained answer sheet is provided to aid marking too.
