Presentation 1: Chart I

Invite the child to get the board and guide brings the tray.
Explain that empty squares are for the numbers that have remainders and we do not need those.
Let the child pick a problem and read it.
Place right fingers on the dividend and left on the divisor (÷) and slide them in the columns until they meet.
Let the child do.
The child will recite the equation as they write it.
When the page is full, show the child the check chart to verify their work. Read the equation on the check chart then the book.

Presentation 2: Chart II

Invite the child to help you order the tiles in columns by like number 1-9.
After the tiles are set, have the child bring the blank board and guide gets the equations.
Let the child pick a problem and read it.
Ask if they remember it. Have them slide their fingers and place the answer tile.
When the child does not remember an answer, they will recite the problem all the way to the check chart, find the answer, and recite on the way back to place the tile.
When they are done, they will check their work with the Chart.

Pedagogical Notes:

The colorless numbers on the top of the charts are prime numbers that can only be divided by 1 and themselves. We only have the prime numbers for numbers under 10 on the board.
Not many children will get this far and won’t know all the equations.
