This quiz addresses the requirements of the National Curriculum KS1 Maths and Numeracy for children aged 6 and 7 in year 2. Specifically this quiz is aimed at the section dealing with multiplication and division by 2.
Counting in 2s is the earliest multiplication skill taught which also helps children when dividing. It is usually practised regularly, in order for the skill to be fluent, and children are also taught to recognise that multiples of two are even. Once the 2 times table is familiar, children will learn how to use the multiplication facts to solve division questions. For example, if they know that 2 x 6 = 12, then they may also recognise that 12 ÷ 6 = 2 or 12 ÷ 2 = 6
