Multiplication and division - Make equal groups grouping - Worksheet

This worksheet is designed to help children understand the concept of making equal groups through grouping, without delving into formal division. Starting with a total number, students are tasked with forming groups of equal amounts and expressing their findings in sentences. The exercise involves counting groups represented by images, often arranged in rows and columns, to solidify their understanding of equal groupings. The worksheet encourages children to articulate their thought process, enhancing their comprehension of the mathematical concept.

In the more challenging sections of the worksheet, children encounter numbers that do not group evenly. They are presented with two options to demonstrate their reasoning: the first is to complete a sentence with the number of groups formed and any remaining amount, while the second option also requires them to specify the number within each equal group. Additionally, the worksheet includes reasoning and problem-solving tasks where students must use clues to deduce a number based on its ability to form equal groups. These exercises are designed to deepen children's understanding of grouping and division in a practical, engaging way.
