It is important that children become confident with the idea that division can be seen as sharing equally. At first this can be done with real objects (cubes, coins etc) using one-to-one correspondence. Later they can move on to pictorial representations, which is where our latest on-screen activity comes in. Very simple, just working out how many buttons a child gets when the buttons are shared equally. We also have a great selection of other activities which concentrate on sharing into 2, 3, 5 and 10.
