By the end of this unit, students will be able to:
Understand the concept of division as the process of sharing or grouping equally.
Divide small quantities by 3 using concrete models, manipulatives, and mental strategies.
Recognize the relationship between division and multiplication (e.g., 3 × 4 = 12, so 12 ÷ 3 = 4).
Apply the concept of dividing by 3 to solve real-life and mathematical problems.
