Why this why now

This unit revisits the concept of division and introduces a short division representation to support calculation, drawing on times table and place value knowledge and understanding. Pupils learn how to record regrouping and remainders using the short division representation. This will prepare them for using multiplication and division in the context of measures and for division involving larger numbers in the future.

Prior knowledge requirements

  • Understand division as sharing or grouping
  • Use partitioning strategies
  • Recall multiplication and division facts

Division by partitioning leading to short division (2 and 3-digits by 1-digit)

In this unit pupils will divide a 2-digit and a 3-digit number by a single-digit number using partitioning and representations and divide a 2-digit number by a single-digit number by using short division.
