What is happening in the world of mathematics in Kinder, Year 1 & 2?
Kindergarten - Division, How to help at home.
Before your child can begin to practice division problems, they first need to understand the concept of division. Explain it to them by relating the idea of division to the idea of sharing and grouping. Help them conceptualise it by explaining how a number of items can be shared equally between groups, and give them examples. You might show them how six biscuits can be given to three children so each of them has two, or how someone with eight apples could give four each to two friends.
Problems:
Try these problems. You could use counters, toys or even draw your answers.
Sebastian had 14 jelly beans and he shared them equally with Mason. How many jelly beans did each boy receive?
