Most are able to use grid method for long multiplication. They know all table facts up to 10 x10 (multiplication and division) Short multiplication teach compact method to children who have not grasped it in Y5. Children should be able to multiply ThHTU x U (Doesnt mention Th in framework) Continue to teach children to approximate answers first. Long multiplication teach expanded method first. Only move on to compact for children for whom it is appropriate, extending to HTU x TU. Children can continue to use grid method if it is more reliable and better understood. Extend to decimals, with up to 2-decimal places, multiplied by a single digit Interpret situations as multiplication calculations Eg.There are 35 rows of chairs. There are 28 chairs in each row.

Foundation Stage Share objects into equal groups and count how many in each group. Clifton Primary School Recording and Written Calculations Policy DIVISION Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Solve problems practically, for example, involving 2, 5, or 10 or sharing into equal groups. * We need to put 12 cakes into boxes of 3 or 4. How many boxes will we have? Understand the operation of division as Sharing equally Eg 6 sweets are shared equally between 2 people. How many sweets does each one get? Record simple mental divisions in a number sentence using the and = signs. Eg. Share 18 between 2 could be recorded as 18 2 Recognise the use of symbols such as or to stand for an unknown number. Eg 12 2 = = 12 2 Understand the operation of division as Sharing equally Eg 6 sweets are shared equally between 2 people. How many sweets does each one get? And Understand the operation of division as Grouping Eg There are 15 apples in a box. How many bags of 5 apples can be filled? ie. How many groups of 5 can you make from 15? Record simple mental divisions in a number sentence using the and = signs. Eg. Divide 25 by 5 Recognise the use of symbols such as or to stand for an unknown number. Eg 16 4 = = 24 4 Understand the operation of division as Sharing equally Grouping (see Y2 examples, but use appropriate numbers) Also that division is the inverse of multiplication. Ensure that grouping continues to be modelled by adults and children on prepared and blank number lines. Eg How many 5s make 35? 7 Grouping should also be modelled on a number line by the teacher and later by pupils. Use prepared number lines and also draw own lines as appropriate eg. 8 children are put into teams of 2. How many teams are there? ie How many groups of 2 are there in 8? 8 2 = 4 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 Answer: Seven 5s make 35 0 2 4 6 8 8 cakes are put into boxes of 4. How many boxes are there? ie How many groups of 4 are there in 8? 8 2 = 4 0 4 8 Explain methods and reasoning orally. This includes being able to interpret division number sentences eg 20 4 could mean If 20 is shared between 4 people how much would each get? Understand the relationship between multiplication and division and therefore be able to derive division facts for 2x, 5x and 10x tables. Eg 5 x 10 =50 so 50 10 = 5 etc. Explain methods and reasoning orally and in writing. If 24 tulips are shared equally between 4 plant pots, how many will be in each pot? Understand the relationship between multiplication and division and therefore be able to derive division facts for 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 10x tables. Eg 8 x 4 =32 so 32 4 = 8 etc. Understand the concept of a remainder. Eg. How many lengths of 10 cms can you cut from 51 cm of tape?

Eg.72 5 = 14 remainder 2 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 72 This leads on to chunking ie.10 times the divisor is calculated in one chunk because it is quicker and more efficient (do not push children on to this without understanding). Eg. 72 5 10x5 0 50 55 60 65 70 72 Answer: 14 r. 2 (Demonstrate only. Children record in vertical format). This should be written in vertical format as in the Framework (section 6, p.68). The Framework relates division to repeated subtraction ie. 72 5 5)72-50 (5x10) 22-20 (5x4) Place divisor on left. 2 Answer: 14 r.2 Children should be taught to approximate first to gain a sensible idea of what the answer must be.

Teach long division (HTU TU) using chunking method.children should approximate answers first. Eg 977 36 is approximately 1000 40 = 25 36)977-360 (10 x 36) 617-360 (10 x 36) 257-180 (5 x 36) 77-72 (2 x 36) 5 Answer: 27 remainder 5 Extend to decimals with up to 2 decimal places as appropriate. Explain methods and reasoning orally and in writing, including whether to round up or down after division (involving remainders) depending on the context. AIM: By the end of Y6 children should be able to use an appropriate method for short division for any numbers, including decimals. Some children are able to do long division. All children are able to explain methods and reasoning and whether to round up or down after division. All children are able to derive division facts for tables up to 10x10
