When the parts are complete and the whole is empty, children use aggregation to add the parts together to find the total.
When the whole is complete and at least one of the parts are empty, children use partitioning to find the missing part.

In KS2, children can apply their understanding of part-whole model to add and subtract fractions, decimals and percentages.

Cubes and counters can be used in a line across as a concrete representation of the bar model.

Discrete bar models are a good starting point with smaller numbers. Each box represents one whole.

The combination bar model can support children to calculate by counting on from the larger number. It is a good stepping stone towards the continuous bar model.

Continuous bar models are useful for a range of values. Each rectangle respresents a number. The question mark indicates the value to be found.

In KS2, children can use bar models to represent larger numbers, decimals and fractions. ]]> 2021-03-19 12:06:53 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1329400199 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1336774016 The multiple bar model is a good way to compare quantities whilst still unpicking the structure.

Two or more bars can be drawn, with a bracket labelling the whole positioned on the right hand side of the bars. Smaller numbers can be represented with a discrete bar model whilst continuous bar models are more effective for larger numbers.

Multiple bar models can also be used to represent the difference in subtraction. An arrow can be used to model the difference. 

When working with smaller numbers, children can use cubes and a discrete model to find the difference. This supports children to see how counting on can help when finding the difference. ]]> 2021-03-22 08:40:29 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1336774016 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1336787313 Number shapes can be useful to support children to subitise numbers as well as explore aggregation, partitioning and number bonds.

When adding numbers, children can see how the parts come together making a whole. As children use number shapes more often, they can also start to subitise the total due to their familiarity with the shape of each number. 

When subtracing numbers, children can start with the whole and then place one of the parts on top of the whole to see what part is missing. 

Children can also work systematically to find number bonds. As they increase one number by 1, they can see that the other number decreases by 1 to find all the possible number bonds for a number. ]]> 2021-03-22 08:44:48 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1336787313 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1336807228 Cubes can be useful to support children with the addition and subtraction of one-digit numbers.

When adding numbers, children can see how the parts come together to make a whole. children could use two different colours of cubes to represent the numbers before putting them together to create the whole.

When subtracting numbers, children can start with the whole and then remove the number of cubes that they are subtracting in order to find the answer. This model of subtraction is reduction, or take away.

Cubes can also be useful to look at subtraction as difference. Here, both numbers are made and then lined up to find the difference betweeen the numbers.

Cubes are useful when working with smaller numbers but are less efficient with larger numbers as they are difficult to subitise and children may miscount them. ]]> 2021-03-22 08:51:42 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1336807228 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1336820143 When adding and subtracting within 10, the ten frame can support children to understand the different structures of addition and subtraction.

Using the language of parts and wholes represented by objects on the ten frame introduces children to aggregation and partitioning.

Children can also use ten frames to look at augmentation and take-away. This can be introduced through a first, then, now structure which shows the change in the number in the 'then' stage. This can be put into a story structure to help children understand the change. e.g First, there were 7 cars. Then, 3 cars left. Now, there are 4 cars. ]]> 2021-03-22 08:56:34 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1336820143 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1336841603 When adding two single digits, children can make each number on separate ten frames before moving part of one number to make 10 on one of the ten frames. This supports children to see how they have partitioned one of the numbers to make 10, and makes links to effective mental methods of addition.

When subtracting a one-digit number from a two-digit number, firstly make the larger number on 2 tens frames. Remove the smaller number, thinking carefully about how you have partitioned the number to make 10, this supports mental methods of subtraction.

When adding three single-digit numbers, children can make each number on 3 separate 10 frames before considering which order to add the numbers in. They may be able to find a number bond to 10 which makes the calculation easier. Once again, the ten frames support the link to effective mental methods of addition as well as the importance of commutativity.  ]]> 2021-03-22 09:04:35 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1336841603 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1337146190 Different sizes of bead strings can support children at different stages of addition and subtraction.

Bead strings to 10 are very effective at helping children to investigate number bonds up to 10. They can help children to systematically find all the number bonds to 10 by moving one bead at a time to see the different numbers they have partitioned the 10 beads into e.g. 2 + 8 =10, move one bead 3 + 7 =10.

Bead strings to 20 work in a similar way but they also group the beads in fives. Children can apply thier knowledge of number bonds to 10 and see the links to number bonds to 20.

Bead strings to 100 are grouped in tens and can support children in number bonds to 100 as well as helping when adding by making ten. Bead strings can show a link to adding to the next 10 on number lines which supports a mental method of additon. ]]> 2021-03-22 10:39:39 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1337146190 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1337166402 Number tracks are useful to support children in thier understanding of augmentation.

When adding, children count on to find the total of the numbers. On a number track, children can place a counter on the starting number and then count on to find the total.

When subtracting, children count back to find their answer. They start at the minuend and then take away the subtrahend to find the difference between the numbers.

Number tracks can work well alongside ten frames and bead strings which can alos model counting on or counting back.

Playing board games can help children to become familiar with the ide of counting on using a number track before they move on to number lines. ]]> 2021-03-22 10:46:33 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1337166402 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1337184680 Labelled number lines support children in their understanding of addition and subtraction as augmentation and reduction.

Children can start by counting on or back in ones, up or down the number line. This skill links directly to the use of the number track.

Progressing further, children can add numbers by jumping to the nearest 10 and then jumping to the total. This links to the making 10 method which can also be supported by ten frames. The smaller number is partitioned to support children to make a number bond to 10 and to then add on the remining part.

Children can subtract numbers by firstly jumping to the nearest 10. Again, this can be supported by ten frames so children can see how they partition the smaller number into the two separate jumps. ]]> 2021-03-22 10:52:57 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1337184680 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1337208736 Blank number lines provide children with a structure to add and subtract numbers in smaller parts.

Developing from labelled number lines, children can add by jumping to the nearest 10 and then adding the rest of the number either as a whole or by adding the tens and ones separately.

Children may also count back on a number line to subtract, again by jumping to the nearest 10 and then subtracting the rest of the number.

Blank number lines can also be used effectively to help children subtract by finding the difference between numbers, This can be done by starting with the smaller number and then counting on to the larger number. They then add up the parts they have counted on to find the difference between the numbers. ]]> 2021-03-22 11:01:13 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1337208736 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1337584403 Straws are an effective way to support children in thier understanding of exchange when adding and sbtracting 2-digit numbers.

Children can be introduced to the idea of bundling groups of ten when adding smaller numbers and when representing 2-digit numbers. Use elastic bands or other ties to make bundles of ten straws.

When adding number, children bundle a group of 10 straws to represent the exchange from 10 ones to 1 ten. They then add the individual straws (ones) and bundles of straws (tens) to find the total.

When subtracting numbers, children unbundle a group of 10 straws to represent the exchange from 1 ten to 10 ones.

Straws provide a good stepping stone to adding and subtracting using Base 10/Dienes

It is important that children write out thier calculations alongside using or drawing Base 10 so they can see the clear links between the written method and the model. 

Children should first add without an exchange before moving on to addition with exchange. The representation becomes less efficient with larger numbers die to the size of Base 10. In this case, Place Value Counters may be the better model to use.  

When adding, always start with the smallest place value column. Here are some questions to support children. 

How many ones are there altogether?
Can we make an exchange? (Yes or No)
How many do we exchange (10 ones for  ten, show exchanged 10 in tens column by writing 1 in column)
How many ones do we have left? (Write in ones column)
Repeat for each column]]> 2021-03-23 09:10:18 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1341881709 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1341913658 Using Base 10 or Dienes is an effective way to support children's understanding of column subtraction. It is important that children write out thier calculations alongside using or drawing Base 10 so they can see the clear links between the written method and the model.

Children should first subtract without an exchange before moving on to subtraction with exchange. When building the model, children should just make the minuend using Base 10, they then subtract the subtrahend. Highlight this difference to addition to avoid errors by making both numbers. Children start with the smallest place value column. When there are not enough ones/tens/hundreds to subtract in a column, children need to move to the column to the left and exchange e.g. exchange 1 ten for 10 ones. They can then subtract efficiently. 

This model is efficient with up to 4-digit numbers. Place value counters are more efficient with larger numbers and decimals. ]]> 2021-03-23 09:21:29 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1341913658 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342034584 Using place value counters is an effective way to support children's understanding of column addition. It is important that children write out thier calculations alongside using or drawing counters so they can see the clear links between the written method and the model.

Children should first add without exchange before moving on to addition with exchange. Different place value counters can be used to represent larger numbers or deicmals. If you don't have place value counters, use normal counters on a place value grid to enable children to experience the exchange between columns. 

When adding money children can also use coins to support their understanding. It is important that children consider how the coins link to the written calculation especially when adding decimal amounts. ]]> 2021-03-23 10:04:26 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342034584 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342048129 Using place value counters is an effective way to support children's understanding of column subtraction.

When adding numbers to 10, children can explore both aggregation and augmentation. 

The part-whole model, discrete and continuous bar model, number shapes and ten frame support aggregation. 

The combination bar model, ten frame, bead string and number track all support augmentation. ]]> 2021-03-23 10:35:27 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342122823 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342151951 Skill: Add 1 and 2-digit numbers to 20
When adding one-digit numbers that cross 10, it is important to highlight the importance of ten ones equalling one ten. 

Different manipulatives can be used to represent this exchange.

At this stage, encourage children to use formal column method when calculating alongside straws, base 10 or place value counters. As numbers become larger, straws become less efficient.

Children can also use a blank number line to count on to find the total. Encourage them to jump to multiples of 10 to become efficient.

This includes putting this into context when subtracting money and other measures. ]]> 2021-03-23 11:56:15 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342358728 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342368469 A number to be added to another]]> 2021-03-23 11:59:00 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342368469 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342369604 combining two or more quantities or measures to find a total]]> 2021-03-23 11:59:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342369604 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342371272 increasing a quantity or measure by another quantity]]> 2021-03-23 11:59:52 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342371272 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342372677 numbers can be added or multiplied  in any order]]> 2021-03-23 12:00:20 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342372677 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342373574 in addition a number and its complement make a total e.g. 300 is the complement to 700 to make 1000]]> 2021-03-23 12:00:37 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342373574 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342375793 The numerical difference between two numbers is found by comparing the quantity in each group]]> 2021-03-23 12:01:18 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342375793 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342377703 Change a number or expression for another of an equal value]]> 2021-03-23 12:01:54 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342377703 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342378921 A quantity or number from which another is subtracted]]> 2021-03-23 12:02:15 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342378921 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342380813 Splitting a number into its complement parts]]> 2021-03-23 12:02:45 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342380813 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342382133 Subtraction as take away]]> 2021-03-23 12:03:07 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342382133 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342382849 Instantly recognise the number of objects in a small group without needing to count]]> 2021-03-23 12:03:20 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342382849 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342385198 A number to be subtracted from another]]> 2021-03-23 12:04:01 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342385198 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342386429 The result of an addition]]> 2021-03-23 12:04:20 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342386429 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342387302 The aggregate or the sum found by addition]]> 2021-03-23 12:04:33 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342387302 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342399096 Children can use the single bar model to represent multiplication as repeated addition. They could use counters, cubes or dots within the bar model to support calculation before moving on to placing digits into the bar model to represent the multiplication.

Division can be represented by showing the total of the bar model and then dividing the bar model into equal groups.

It is important when solving word problems that the bar model represents the problem.

Sometimes, children may look at scaling problems. In this case, more than one bar model is useful to represent this type of problem e.g. There are 3 girls in a group. There are 5 times more boys than girls. How many boys are there?
The multiple bar model provides an opportunity to compare the groups. ]]> 2021-03-23 12:07:43 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342399096 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342428687 Number shapes support children's understanding of multiplication as repeated addition. 

Children can build multiplications in a row using the number shapes. When using odd numbers, encourage children to interlock the shapes so there are no gaps in the row. They can then use the tens number shapes along with other necessary shapes over the top of the row to check the total. Using the number shapes in multiplication can support children in discovering patterns of multiplication e.g. odd x odd = even, odd x even = odd, even x even = even.]]> 2021-03-23 12:15:09 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342428687 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342476397 Number shapes support children's understanding of multiplication as repeated addition.

Using the number shapes in mulitplication can support children in discovering patterns of multiplication e.g. odd x odd = even, odd x even = odd, even x even = even.

When dividing, number shapes support children's understanding of division as grouping. Children make the number they are dividing and then place the number shape they are dividing by over the top of the number to find how many groups of the number there are altogether e.g. There are 6 groups of 3 in 18. ]]> 2021-03-23 12:26:42 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342476397 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342534313 Bead strings to 100 can support children in thier understanding of multiplication as repeated addition. Children can build the multiplication using the beads. THe colour of beads supports children in seeing how many groups of 10 they have, to calculate the total more efficiently. 
Encourage children to count in multiples as they buils the number e.g. 4, 8, 12, 16, 20

Children can also use the bead string to count forwards and backwards in multiples, moving the beads as they count. 

When dividing, children build the number they are dividing and then group the beads in to the number they are dividing by e.g. 20 divided by 4 - Make 20 and then groups the beads into groups of four. Count how many groups you have made to find the answer. ]]> 2021-03-23 12:39:04 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342534313 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342561983 Number tracks are useful to support children to count in multiples, forwards and backwards. Moving counters or cubes along the number track can support children to keep track of their counting.

When multiplying children place their counter on 0 to start and then count on to find the product of the numbers.
When dividing, children place their counter on the number they are dividing and the count back in jumps of the number they are dividing by until they reach 0. Children record how many jumps they have made to find the answer to the division.

Number tracks can be useful with smaller multiples but when reaching larger numbers they can become less efficient.  ]]> 2021-03-23 12:44:47 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342561983 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342646517 Labelled number lines are useful to support children to count in multiples, forwards and backwards as well as calculating single-digit multiplications.

Blank number lines with intervals can support children to represent scaling accurately. Children can label intervals with multiples to calculate scaling problems.

Blank number lines without intervals can also be used for children to represent scaling. ]]> 2021-03-23 13:07:34 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342675482 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342708000 Using Base 10 or Dienes is an effective way to support children's understanding of column multiplication. It is children's understanding of column multiplication. It is important that children write out their calculation alongside the equipment so they can see how the concrete and written representations match.

As numbers become larger in multiplication or the amounts of groups becomes higher,  Base 10/Dienes becomes less efficient due to the amount of equipment and number of exchanges needed. 

Base 10 also supports the area model of multiplication well. Children use the equipment to build the number in a rectangular shape which they then find the area of by calculating the total value of the pieces. This area model can be linked to the grid method or formal column method of multiplying 2-digits by 2-digits. ]]> 2021-03-23 13:13:34 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342708000 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342930902 Using Base 10 or Dienes is an effective way to move children from representing them as tens and ones in order to divide. Children can then share the Base 10/Dienes between different groups e.g. by drawing circles or by rows on a place value grid. 

When they are sharing, children start with the larger place value and work left to right. If there are any left in a column, they exchange e.g. one ten for ten ones. When recording, encourage children to use the part-whole model so they can consider how the number has been partitioned in order to divide. This will support them with mental methods. ]]> 2021-03-23 13:51:42 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342930902 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1342983045 Using place value counters is an effective way to support children's understanding of column multiplication.

When dividing numbers involving an exchange, children can use Base 10 and place value counters to exchange one ten for ten ones. Children should start with the equipment outside the place vlaue grid before sharing the tens and ones equally between the rows. 

Flexible partitioning in a part-whole model supports this method. ]]> 2021-03-23 20:36:27 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1345122590 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1346716362 Skill: Divide 2-digits by 1-digit (grouping)

When using the short division method, children use grouping. Starting with the largest place value, they group by the divisor. 

Language is important here. Children should consider 'How many groups of 4 tens can we make?' and 'How many groups of 4 ones can we make?'

Remainders can also be seen as they are left ungrouped. ]]> 2021-03-24 07:50:21 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1346716362 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1346725052 Skill: Divide 3-digits by 1-digit (sharing)

Children can continue to use place value counters to share 3-digit numbers into equal groups. Children should start with the equipment outside the place vlaue grid before sharing the hundreds, tens and ones equally between the rows. This method can also help to highlight remainders. 
Flexible partitioning in a part-whole model supports this method. ]]> 2021-03-24 07:53:31 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1346725052 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1346726928 Skill: Divide 3-digits by 1-digit (grouping)

Children can continue to use grouping to support their understanding of short division when dividing a 3-digit number by a 1-digit number. 

Place value counters or plain counters can be used on a place value grid to support this understanding. Children can also draw their own counters and group them through a more pictorial method. ]]> 2021-03-24 07:54:14 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1346726928 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1346728749 Skill: Divide 4-digits by 1-digit (grouping)

Place value counters or plain counters can be used on a place value grid to support children to divide 4-digits by 1-digit. Children can also draw their own counters and group then through a more pictorial method. 
Children should be encouraged to move away from the pictoral when dividing numbers with mulitple exchanges. ]]> 2021-03-24 07:54:46 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1346728749 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1346758926 Skill: Divide multi digits by 2-digits (short division)

When children begin to divide up to 4-digits by 2-digits, written methods become the most accurate as concrete and pictorial representations become less effective. Children can write out multiples to support their calculations with larger remainders. Children will also solve problems with remainders where the quotient can be rounded as appropriate. ]]> 2021-03-24 08:05:55 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1346758926 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347022093 Skill: Divide multi-digits by 2-digits (long division)

Children can also divide by 2-digit numbers using long division. 

Children can write out multiples to support thier calculations with larger remainders. 

Children will also solve problems with remianders where the quotient can be rounded as appropriate. ]]> 2021-03-24 09:36:38 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347022093 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347025705 Skill: Divide multi-digits by 2-digits (long division)

When a remainder is left at the end of a calculation, children can either leave it as a remainder or convert it to a fraciton. This will depend on the context of the question. 

Children can also answer questions where the quotient needs to be rounded according to the context. ]]> 2021-03-24 09:37:55 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347025705 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347067234 An ordered collection of counters cubes or other items in rows and columns]]> 2021-03-24 09:52:17 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347067234 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347071989 In division, the number that is divided. ]]> 2021-03-24 09:54:02 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347071989 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347073613 In division, the number by which another is divided]]> 2021-03-24 09:54:37 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347073613 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347075766 A number that mulitples with another to make a product]]> 2021-03-24 09:55:21 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347075766 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347077135 In multiplication, a number to be multiplied by another]]> 2021-03-24 09:55:52 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347077135 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347079464 The result of multiplying one number by another]]> 2021-03-24 09:56:45 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347079464 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347080842 The result of division]]> 2021-03-24 09:57:15 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347080842 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347082249 The amount left over after a division when the divisor is not a factor of the dividend]]> 2021-03-24 09:57:43 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347082249 lculver4 https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347083926 Enlarging or reducing a number by a given amount, called the scale factor]]> 2021-03-24 09:58:24 UTC https://padlet.com/lculver4/rcur7eys6cqqgrbo/wish/1347083926
