This set of 24 task cards has division 2 by 1 standard algorithm. They can also be used in a building thinking classroom. There are three types of questions which are marked in the bottom right corner with a snap cube. One snap cube is a type one (mild) question – fact families can be used to find the answer to these questions, two snap cubes is a type two (medium) question – dividend larger than what can be found on a multiplication chart but still a two-digit number, and three snap cubes is a type three (spicy) question – division equations with remainders. There are so many options to use them with. They can be laminated or paper copy to write on, table scoot, homework, game board cards, or team problem solving. There is a free game board located in my store, Sprout & Thrive.

This product is intended to be used in a classroom modeled after Peter Liljedahl’s book Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics.

Launch Script: This is the mini lesson. It should be quick, 10 minutes.

Consolidation: Wrap up the lesson after tasks. This is like a second mini lesson. Have students gather around and possibly walk the room to show varying strategies used by classmates.

Notes: This page is intended to be printed for students to write on and glue into journals or hole punched for a notebook.

Check Your Understanding: Students complete so the teacher can check to see what the student does or does not understand. It is meant to go in a certain order so that you, the teacher, know where a student begins to struggle – A, B, C, D, etc. – down each column of Mild, Medium, Spicy.
