What Your Child Will Learn
Grade 3 introduces division as sharing equally and grouping. Students learn that 12 ÷ 3 can mean 'share 12 into 3 equal groups' or 'how many groups of 3 in 12?' They connect division to multiplication using fact families.
Division facts to 7 ÷ 7 (matching multiplication) are practised using arrays, repeated subtraction, and concrete materials. Students solve simple division word problems involving equal sharing and grouping scenarios.

How is division connected to multiplication?
Division is the inverse of multiplication. If your child knows 6 × 4 = 24, they can figure out 24 ÷ 4 = 6. Strong multiplication fact fluency makes division much easier.
When does my child learn long division?
Long division is typically introduced in Grade 4 and refined through Grade 5-6. Start with single-digit divisors, then progress to two-digit divisors. Understanding place value is key.
How should my child handle remainders in division?
Remainders appear in Grade 4. Teach your child to express remainders as a whole number (R2), a fraction (2/5), or a decimal (0.4) depending on the context of the problem.
