2. This game which I am presenting can be
used to work with pupils of all ages, while you
are discussing various topics such as:
-formation of two-digit number, three-digit
number etc.
-comparing numbers
-reading and properties of multi-digit numbers
-divisibility rules for numbers
-learning and practising multiplication table.
During my lesson, I used the game to
develop children’s division skills and their
understanding of division with remainders.

3. The teacher prepares a set of digits (the exact
number of them corresponding with the number of pupils)
using self-adhesive paper, which works best in this game.
Each pupil chooses a digit, which he or she likes most
and sticks in a conspicuous place on their clothes.
Students run in
the corridor and
as soon as they
hear the teacher’s
signal, they form
pairs, groups of
three or four
pupils so as to
form multi-digit
numbers.

4. The teacher asks questions related to the subject of the
lesson.
1. Give the remainder of the division of the number you
formed by 7 – the pupils write down the remainder and the
division on dry-erase writing boards.
10 : 7 = 1 r 3
73 : 7 = 10 r 3

5. 22 : 7 = 3 r 1
12 : 7 = 1 r 5

6. In case of three-digit
numbers, the pupils
made their task easier
by doing long division.
101 : 7 = 14 r 3

7. 322 : 7 = 46 r 0
The pupils analysed the results obtained during the
game and came to a conclusion that the remainder
from the division by 7 can be: 0,1,2,3,4,5 or 6.

8. 2. Stand in pairs so that the remainder of the division by 5
of the number you formed is 1.
This was a more difficult
task than the previous one

9. but completed successfully
51 : 5 = 10 r 1
Finally, the pupils formed the groups of three or four. They
had to decide what the remainder of the division by 10 of
the number they formed would be and what the closest
number divisible by 10 would be.

10. 511 : 10 = 51 r 1
The number
divisible by 10 is
510
401 : 10 = 40 r 1
The number divisible
by 10 is 400

11. 223 : 10 = 22 r 3
The number divisible by
10 is 220
7794 : 10 = 779 r 4
The number
divisible by 10 is
7790
The pupils noticed that the number divisible 10 must end
with „0”.
