Overview
Your student will be learning:
- multiplication and division have an inverse relationship.
Example:
4 groups of 3 in each group is a total of 12 (4 x 3 = 12)
12 separated into 4 equal groups is 3 in each group (12 ÷ 4 = 3)
- every division fact has a related multiplication fact.
Example: 12 ÷ 4 = 3 4 x 3 = 12
- whole numbers can be grouped as either odd or even.
Example:
- Since 12 can be divided evenly by 2, it is even.
- Since 13 cannot be divided evenly by 2, it is odd.
- The vocabulary for division: dividend, divisor, quotient
