What the child does
Long Division in a child's hands
Long division material: 4 colour-coded division boards and a wooden tray holding 7 racks of tubes with beads, 7 cups and 36 skittles. Division is the only operation where you do not start from the right and do not proceed mechanically, which is exactly why it is hardest to learn from the written notation. On the boards it is done the way it really works: a quantity is shared among a given number of places, and whatever is left over is the remainder, which can be seen. The colour coding keeps the place values apart. Wood and plastic, for ages 6 to 12.
Mathematical Understanding
Transforms abstract division concepts into concrete, manipulable experiences through systematic bead distribution.
Logical Thinking
Sequential work with the material builds pattern recognition and mathematical reasoning skills.
Fine Motor Control
Precise handling of beads and skittles refines pincer grip and hand-eye coordination.
Concentration
Multi-step division process requires sustained attention and methodical work habits.
Activity Guide
How to present it
3 tips for parents
- Practice equal sharing at home using everyday objects like cookies or toys
- Point out division in daily life: 'If we have 12 eggs and use 3 per omelet, how many omelets can we make?'
- Celebrate when your child discovers a pattern, like all numbers divided by 1 equal themselves

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this material appropriate for ages 6-12 given the complexity of long division?
This material introduces division concepts concretely through bead manipulation, not abstract long division algorithms. Children start with simple sharing activities and progress gradually. The hands-on nature makes basic division accessible to young learners when presented appropriately.
How does the Long Division material work?
Division is done on the boards the way it really works: a quantity is shared among a given number of places, and whatever is left over is the remainder, which can be seen. The colour coding keeps the place values apart.
What prerequisites should children have before using this material?
Children should have experience with golden bead material, understand quantity and symbols to 100, and have worked with multiplication boards. Familiarity with skip counting and basic number patterns is helpful for success with this material.
How does this material prepare children for abstract division later?
By physically manipulating beads to share quantities equally, children internalize division concepts before encountering written algorithms. This concrete experience creates a strong foundation for understanding remainders, divisibility, and eventually long division on paper.
What is included in this comprehensive set?
The set consists of 4 colour-coded division boards and a wooden tray holding 7 racks of tubes with beads, 7 cups and 36 skittles.
