Juegos de matemáticas: división para principiantes (Juegos en matemáticas)

This is a great class for learners who are new to division, learn best with hands-on learning, or want to be able to discuss division instead of just memorizing the facts. 

Students will use items around their house to show division visually. Students will be given a number and will make equal groups using items they have around the house. I prefer to use a bag of beans because they are easy to manipulate, affordable and there are so many in a bag. You can use anything you like, as long as you have 50 of whatever item(s) you are using. We will then use these visuals to create a written division equation for each example. During this time we will use the visual to discuss what dividends, quotients and divisors are.
