Self-Correcting Division Cards Now Available

Division facts are often the forgotten operation – and one that students immensely dislike!

I’ve created a fun set of self-correcting division cards to support mastery in learning these. I have attached one set here (Division 3) to download and play. The full set is available for purchase from my Teachers Pay Teachers store.

These self-correcting division cards facilitate independent practice of the division facts. Each division fact family (1-12) is prepared as a set of PDF cards to print (double-sided in colour) and cut.

  1. Students place the cards face down on the table and begin by turning over the “Start” card.
  2. Each card has a division fact question on the back. The student locates the matching answer and places on the pile.
  3. If successful, the final card to be turned over says “Well Done”.
  4. If unsuccessful, more cards are remaining on the table and the student can attempt again.
  5. These games can also be extended with the inclusion of a timed practice to build fluency.

 

Students enjoy playing these games and gain much satisfaction and confidence in successful completions. A fun and engaging way to build accuracy and fluency in the final of the four operations – the often forgotten – division facts!
