Presentation on different methods of teaching division and halving in particular. Quick run-through of a number of different methods. Intended for used as teacher reference or staff training but could also be adapted for a lesson. If you love it, please leave me a review!

A simple yet engaging ‘trick’ for any age or ability, I’ve used this worksheet with KS1, 2 and 3. All the child needs to do is write any number in the star and then double and halve it according to the instructions, so this can be easily differentiated with different sizes of numbers. Why not challenge the more able pupils by giving special conditions for the starter numbers they come up with? ‘Must be odd’, ‘All the digits must add up to 17’, ‘No zeros’ etc. Hours of fun!
