Short Division - The Bus Stop Method
A demonstration tool - formal written method of short division
Learning Objectives:
- Year 3: 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
- Year 4: Pupils practise to become fluent in the formal written method of short multiplication and short division with exact answers
- Year 5: divide numbers up to 4 digits by a one-digit number using the formal written method of short division and interpret remainders appropriately for the context
This resource is designed for demonstration of formal written methods for short division.
There is the option to use remainders or decimals.
You can also swap between two and three digit numbers. (Where decimal remainders are used the third column in the tenths).
If you're working from home why not allow the children to set their own questions using this resource on a tablet.
Have fun!
