Four in Four - Division Set L 3 digit number - 2, 4 6, 8 or 10 mixed
Maths Resource Description
The 'Four in Four' exercise is an engaging and time-pressured activity designed for Year 4 students to sharpen their division skills. The task involves completing four written calculations within a four-minute timeframe. Each worksheet presents a set of division problems, where students are required to divide three-digit numbers by 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10. The numbers to be divided are mixed across the sheets to provide varied practice. For instance, one of the problems on Sheet 1 is to divide 249 by 4, while on Sheet 2, students face a challenge like dividing 376 by 8. These exercises not only enhance students' computational fluency but also help them to manage their time effectively during tests.
Complementing the division worksheets, the 'Four in Four' series also provides answer sheets, ensuring that students can receive immediate feedback on their work. The answers reveal not only the quotient but also any remainders that result from the division. For example, the solution to dividing 126 by 6 is given as 21 without a remainder, whereas dividing 329 by 8 results in 41 with a remainder of 1. This comprehensive approach helps students to understand the concept of remainders and reinforces their division skills. The 'Four in Four' activity is an excellent tool for teachers to assess students' understanding and speed in solving division problems.
