Year 4 have been working so hard this week on division in maths. They started using their times table knowledge to divide, then looked at dividing using counters and finally moved on to using short written methods.

Here they are using counters to divide (in their favourite way – writing on the tables). The children worked to divide the counters into equal groups of either 2/5/4/8/3 to answer the questions. Things got particularly tricky when we had to exchange a ten counter for ten ones.

They’ve worked so hard, I’m sure they will be dreaming of division this week!
