  1. Multiplication and Division

  2. Aims for this evening Talk you through the main ways in which we teach X and ÷ See the children in action 2. Tips for helping your child at home 3. Some useful resources and wbebsites

  3. Main sources of advice and guidance

  4. Key things to remember 1. The importance of developing rapid recall of number facts such as times tables, doubling and halving and quick working out of fractions is vital 2. The development of mental strategies begins before written methods and then runs parallel to them – it is the thing that children will use most in life 3. Formal methods are important but not at the expense of understanding (efficient methods are used increasingly as the children get older) 4. The language of and discussion in maths is important i.e. an important term for the children to know with multiplication is product as this is used a lot

  5. Multiplication Informal groups > numberline > arrays

  6. Multiplication Grid method (efficient) > formal (efficient)

  7. Multiplication examples from Y1/2 and from Y6 There are 4 apples in each pack. Mrs Pullen buys 3 packs of apples. How many apples does she buy? Work out the number that is halfway between 27 × 38 and 33 × 38 Show your working. (this one might be easier than it looks)

  8. Division Dividend – the big number Divisor – the small number

  9. Note about remainders: remainders as numbers in KS1 and Y3. Increasingly expressed as fractions as children move into Y5,6. E.g. 36 ÷ 5 = 6r1 in Y3 but 6 and 1/5 in Y5
