Maths time

Some of us have been learning about sharing and dividing.

We are getting better and better at it.

                           There are different ways that we can work out the answers to problems such as, "The class had 24 seeds to plant and had to put them into 6 rows. How many seeds would be in each row?"

Sometimes we share out the "seeds" one by one into each row. Sometimes we share them out in groups of two or three.

Sometimes we can work out the answers using number facts.

For example, we know that 8 + 8 = 16 and 4 + 4 = 8 so the answer to 16 divided by 4 must be four.

It makes us think. Especially when we get given mean ones like, "24 divided by what = 6?"
