This includes scaffolding, with representations to support learning with regard to dividends, divisors and quotients. I have found this to be particularly beneficial for children in understanding the concept of 'remainders' #hflprimarymaths

Excellent work @Hertsmaths
I know improving maths skills and confidence for all pupils has always been what drives you.
#Secondary schools and #middleschool #maths teachers, if you have #Year7 children who struggle with maths this could be the answer!
