Lesson details

Key learning points

  1. In this lesson, we will explore dividing numbers by partitioning into multiples and dividing the parts. We will start with calculations that involve dividing by a single digit making links to the multiplication calculations in the last lesson. We will then find multiples of 2-digit numbers and use these to divide by partitioning into multiples in order to divide each part.
