[quote=Anonymous]The PBS show Cyberchase is great about making math fun and relatable. I think their episode The Halloween Howl (Season 5, Episode 1) deals with division. The episode can be found here. Please note that each episode is broken into parts and plays in reverse, so you’ll have to start each segment separately.

[quote=Anonymous]What are some resources to help my 3rd grader understand division? He's got the multiplication facts down but division is proving to be a but more challenging. [/quote]

The best explanation I’ve come across was in the book Quick Arithmetic by Robert A. Carman. Designed for adults who are trying to teach/reteach themselves arithmetic, it’s the clearest, most readable math book I’ve seen.

The Montgomery County public library has an online version, you may be able to get it through your local library system.
