Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

In addition to independent student work time, use this worksheet as an activity for:

• Guided math groups
• Lesson warm-up
• Lesson wrap-up
• Fast finishers 
• Homework assignment
• Whole-class review (via smartboard)

For students who need a bit of a challenge, encourage them to create their own riddles for their classmates to solve. Students can create different equations with varying complexities. 

If there are students who need additional support, provide them with a multiplication chart to assist with simple calculations. Additionally, encourage students to list the multiples on a separate piece of paper so they can visually see how many times the divisor will go into the dividend.
