Explore this engaging approach to division problem solving with young scholars. They construct story problems after drawing 3 cards that give them a type of object, how many they have of that object, and the number of groups the object must be divided into. Then they determine and write up the equation for finding out how many objects will be in each group, using a checklist to be sure their story includes all necessary components.
