2. Guides the pupils to divide whole number by 2-digit numbers;
3. Pupil’s Activities – Divide whole number by 2-digit numbers.
4. Guides the pupils to solve problems on division of whole numbers and decimals by 2-digit and 3-digit numbers;
5. Pupil’s Activities – Solve problems on division of whole numbers and decimals by 2-digit and 3-digit numbers.
6. Guides the pupils to solve quantitative problems on division of whole numbers and decimals by 2-digit and 3-digit numbers;
7. Pupil’s Activities – Solve quantitative problems on division of whole numbers and decimals by 2-digit and 3-digit numbers.

CONCLUSION

• To conclude the lesson for the week, the teacher revises the entire lesson and links it to the following week’s lesson – revision.
