Use a dividing tool to make equal shares of stationery such as pens, pencils or crayons. Complete a sentence describing a number operation. For example, pack 24 crayons into packets of 5. Predict how many packets are needed and identify how many items are left over. This learning object is one in a series of five objects.
Objective
1. Students model division as grouping (repeated subtraction).
