Guide to long division part one

Guide to long division part one

(0)
To be used as an example resource with my 'sneaky times tables' documents, this method and layout of long division is a good teaching aid and sets it out in an easy to read and follow format. From this you can make your own examples and help pupils get to grips with this method. Often the hardest part of long division is ensuring that the pupil knows that division and subtraction 'go together' just like addition and multiplication do, and knowing how many times a number goes into another number. This is just one of many guides that will make clear this process for pupils.
