Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and Division - Division with remainders (1) (Place value counters) - Worksheet
Maths Resource Description
The worksheet provided is an educational resource for Year 6 students to enhance their understanding of division with remainders. It utilises place value counters as a visual aid to help children group numbers and apply the short division method effectively. As they advance through the exercises, the students are encouraged to build on the foundation laid in Year 4, deepening their comprehension of how remainders function within various contexts. The worksheet includes a series of division problems where students must calculate the results, taking into account the remainders, and complete tables with missing parts to solve division challenges.
Further exercises on the worksheet direct the students to tackle reasoning questions, specifically dividing 4-digit numbers by 1-digit numbers, and deduce the remainder. The layout is designed to promote fluency and precision in mathematical calculations, using a structured format that includes columns for thousands (Th), hundreds (H), tens (T), and ones (O). By employing place value counters and the short division technique, students practice completing calculations and understanding the concept of remainders in division. The worksheet also provides answers to the calculations, allowing for self-assessment or guided review by an educator.
