Cut and Paste Statements

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a hands-on activity designed for learning divisibility rules. It contains several statements about divisibility on the right side and a list of numbers (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10) on the left. The students are instructed to cut out the divisibility rules and paste them next to the correct number on the left side, creating a visual association between the rule and the divisor. This cut-and-paste format adds an interactive component to the learning process, making it more engaging for students.

The worksheet’s objective is to teach students how to determine if a number is divisible by another through various divisibility rules. By matching each rule to its corresponding number, students learn to identify patterns and apply these rules quickly, which is especially useful for simplifying fractions and finding factors. The hands-on aspect of the task is meant to enhance memory retention and understanding of the rules. Moreover, this activity can help in developing fine motor skills through the cutting and pasting process, which is a beneficial side aspect for younger students.
