Written division
Lesson presentations and activities
This is a unit of work that I planned for my Year 4 class for dividing 3-digit numbers by 1-digit numbers using a written method. We had covered mental methods leading into this unit which is reflected in Lesson 4's resources (selecting an appropriate method).
Each lesson can be split across 2 lessons, which is effectively what we did to ensure they had enough time to consolidate and move onto the deeper challenges.
L1: Dividing 2-digit numbers using short division
L2: Dividing 3-digit numbers using short division
L3: Finding missing values using inverse operations
L4: Selecting an efficient method to solve division problemsReviews

Brill. Exactly what I needed. It includes answers as well.
This powerpoint presents examples of long division using a formal method. The powerpoint is animated with colour matching numbers. The examples include 3 digit divided by 2 digit numbers, as well as a 4 digit divided by a 2 digit number. The final slide shows an example of a quicker method (bus stop).
