In order for the child to have no problems with the lessons at school, it is necessary to give him basic knowledge from an early age. It is much easier to explain to him some things in the game, and not during a strict school lesson.
Principle of division for children
A child often encounters many mathematical concepts without even guessing about them. After all, all the mothers, playing with the baby, say that the pope has more soup, go to the grandmother longer than to the store and other simple examples. All this gives the kid an initial idea of ​​mathematics.
It is worth trying to offer the child to play games with division. Divide the apples (pears, cherries, sweets) between the mother and the baby, gradually adding other participants: dad, toy, cat. In the beginning the baby will be divided, giving out to everyone on one subject. And then you sum up. Tell him that there were only 6 apples, you divided them into three people, and each got two. Explain that dividing a word means giving it all equally.
If you need to explain the division with numbers, you can also give a game example. Say that the numbers are the same apples. Tell us that the number of apples that need to be divided is a dividend. And the number of people on which you need to share these apples is a divisor. Show some examples clearly. In the form of a child, the child will understand everything.
How to teach a child how to divide a column?
If you teach a child to divide a column, then most likely the addition, subtraction and multiplication in the column, he has already mastered. If not, then necessarily tighten this knowledge, otherwise, adding more and division, the child is generally confused.
So, we divide into a column. Let's take a simple example: 110 should be divided into 5.
- We write the dividend - 110, and next to it the divisor - 5.
- Let's divide it all by a corner.
- We begin to explain, here is an example of a dialogue:
-The first digit 1. 1 divided by 5?
-No.
-To, we take the next smallest possible figure, which is divided by 5 - this is 11. How many times figure 5 can fit in 11?
-Twice.
- Write the number 2 in the corner under the five. We check, multiply 5 by 2.
- It turns out 10.
- Write this number under 11. Do a subtraction. 11 minus 10?
- Equal to 1.
- We write 1 and next we demolish 0 from the divisible (110 which). It turned out 10. 10 divided by 5?
- Yes, it turns out 2.
- We write 2 under 5.
Well and further all in the same spirit. This example is given and painted in such details so that the parents themselves remember how it is to divide the column.
In order to facilitate the study of division, now there are tables of division for children. The principle of operation is the same as for the multiplication table. That's just whether you need to learn the division table, if you already learned the multiplication? It will depend on the school and the teacher.
