Learning Division Using LEGO® Bricks
Student Edition

Dr. Shirley Disseler
This is the student edition to accompany Teaching Division Using LEGO® Bricks and should be used in conjunction with that book.

In Learning Division Using LEGO® Bricks, Dr. Shirley Disseler has developed activities that work to help students learn the basics of division, using a common toy available in most classrooms and homes—LEGO® bricks!

True understanding of division goes far beyond memorizing facts. Modeling the process of division with LEGO® bricks helps students visualize the math problem. We know that students learn in many different ways. This book provides a variety of modeling techniques using LEGO® bricks, allowing all students to experience that “Aha! I get it!” moment.

In this book, the hands-on activities using LEGO® bricks help students learn:

  • equal shares or partitive division
  • repeated subtraction or quotitive division
  • multiplication and division fact families
  • basic division
  • two-digit division and dividing larger numbers

The book starts at the most basic concepts and focuses on a specific topic in each chapter. Most students learn these concepts between grades 3 – 6.
​
Using LEGO® bricks to model math provides a universal language. Children everywhere recognize this manipulative. It’s fun to learn when you’re using LEGO® bricks in the classroom!

“When you bring LEGO® bricks into the classroom, the students automatically react with ‘oooh, cool!’ and they are hooked on the activity. There is nothing better as a teacher than seeing your students enjoy learning.”
