Class Experience

In this class, learners will be introduced to division through the use of candy manipulatives and equal groups. Using a slideshow for visual learners, we will first complete an ice breaker game to get to know one another, then we will discuss the meaning of division. After our discussion, I will model how to build a visual representation of a division problem and solve it, we will build and solve a few together, then students will build their own and show it/explain their answer to the class...

Students will learn how to model and solve division facts using equal groups (10/2=5).
