Max Maths, Year 2, Work Book, Leftovers

In the 'Max Maths, Year 2, Work Book' under the section titled 'Leftovers', students are presented with practical exercises to understand division and the concept of remainders. Practice 2 focuses on dividing a set number of coloured dots into equal groups and determining how many dots, if any, are left over after the division. For instance, when 19 dots are divided into 3 groups, each group will have 6 dots, with 1 dot remaining. Similarly, dividing 17 dots into 4 groups results in each group having 4 dots, with 1 dot left over. The exercises continue with varying numbers of dots and groups, challenging students to calculate the number of dots in each group and the leftovers.

The workbook provides additional exercises to reinforce the concept. For example, when 25 dots are divided into 4 groups, each group contains 6 dots, with 1 dot remaining. Dividing 11 dots into 2 groups leaves each group with 5 dots and 1 dot as the remainder. Another exercise asks students to divide 17 dots into 2 groups, which results in each group having 8 dots and 1 dot left over. These exercises help Year 2 students to grasp basic division and the idea of remainders in an engaging and visual manner, using coloured dots as a hands-on learning tool.
