Which Dog

Worksheet Description

The worksheet is a visually engaging activity designed to teach the divisibility rules through a fun and interactive method. It features illustrations of dogs, each with a number on them, and students are asked to answer questions about how many dogs have numbers divisible by certain divisors such as 4, 8, both 2 and 3, both 4 and 5, and both 6 and 9. The playful imagery of dogs aims to capture the students’ interest and make the process of learning divisibility rules more enjoyable. The activity combines basic arithmetic with visual elements to enhance the learning experience.

The worksheet is intended to teach students how to identify numbers that are divisible by various factors. By assessing the numbers on the dogs, students practice applying divisibility rules to real examples, which helps in reinforcing their number sense and understanding of factors and multiples. The questions are structured to progressively increase in complexity, guiding students from simple divisibility to more complex scenarios involving multiple factors. This activity also helps in developing attention to detail as students need to check each number against several divisibility criteria.
