Tuesday:

Division with remainders

Write 22 ÷ 4 = . We shall count in 4s to find how many towers of 4 cubes we can make from 22. Count 22 cubes/coins, making towers of 4 as you go and saying the multiples of

4 loudly: 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20. When you reach 20, point out that there are only 2 more. We don’t have enough to make another tower of 4. There are 2 left over. Demonstrate how we write this: 22 ÷ 4 = 5 with 2 left over or 22 ÷ 4 = 5 r 2.

Area: Introduce the formulae using letters for variables:

area = l × b

Measure and draw a square that has sides of 10 cm. How could you work out the area without counting individual 1 cm squares? Link to arrays and multiplication and explain, supported with a drawing, that there are 10 rows of 10 cm squares which is the same as 10 × 10. The area is 100 square cm. (Don’t forget the units.) Show them how to write this as 100 cm2 explaining that the raised 2 indicates that two dimensions are involved – length and width.
