Division
If your student is struggling with division there are several ways to help them.

*The first is to write down all the factors of the divisor before starting the problem. This will allow for them to reference accurate facts easily. (They can do this with a traditional method or lattice method)

4987 / 22          

Facts
1x22= 22              5x22= 110           9x22= 198
2x22= 44              6x22= 132
3x22= 66              7x22= 154
4x22= 88              8x22= 176

* The second is to use graph paper to work out problems in order to keep the numbers in line so that they are easy work through problems.
