INTRODUCTION TO SEE-IT™ MATH

– DIVISION/FACTORING SECTION

…see the CONNECTION --- understand the CONCEPT!

This method of division is a way that anyone can do

DIVISION even if they DO NOT know how to MULTIPLY !

Showing the concept of division has been

A very challenging ADVENTURE,

but I am hopeful that this will help a lot of students,

[especially when it is first introduced to them].

This method will also construct a bridge into higher math.

I am confident that it will open up many doors in your student’s mind,

helping them on all levels. 

It will also help with

Fractions, Algebra, and other Upper Levels of Math

[and even some sciences].

 Even if your student does not know his/her multiplication tables, they

will be able to perform DIVISION and MULTIPLICATION

[With this principal, they will be able to do any number

without a calculator.

I have chosen, for now, only going up to 144.

One reason is, once they can get the DIVIDEND

within this  range, they are almost finished finding the

QUOTIENTof the original math problem.

This also can be done for numbers with remainders.

[Please wait to introduce this part until the student feel good about themselves with ones with no remainders.]
