Maths Reflection

During maths, I learnt to solve "How many sets of?" and "sharing" division problems using multiplication (reversibility).

For example:

Jo had 9 muesli chunks. She shared among 3 children.
How many chunks will each child get?

9 divided by 3 = 3
There are 3 muesli chunks that 3 children got.

Maths Reflection

During Maths I learnt to solve problems like 28 + ? = 82 using a tidy number line then jumping back by a smaller number.

For example:
28 + ? = 82
28 + 2 = 30
30 + 50 = 80
80 + 3 = 83
83 - 1 = 82
