Teaching Long Division
This game is great to use in class or at home for helping students get an understanding of long division.
What you need: 15 – 50 beads or counters of some kind, a pair of dice, sheet of paper for each player, pencil for each player
How to Play:
For example, let’s say you decide to play the game with using 30 beads. Player 1 rolls a 7 on the die. The player will then see how many groups of 7 can be made from the 30 beads. Are there any beads leftovers that cannot make a group of 7? If so, the player gets to keep the leftovers as points. In this example the player would make 4 groups of 7, and would have 2 leftovers.
Let's say player 2 rolls a 6 on the dice.
