Before teaching
Use this short check, then start teaching.
Learner readiness not observed. Ask what 4 ÷ 10 means and why 40 is ten times 4. Revisit division by ten or the ×10 place relationship if needed.
Check learner readiness separately; the existence of a prerequisite lesson is not evidence of attainment.

Check understanding
- Calculate 3.45 × 100 = 345
- Calculate 72 ÷ 1000 = 0.072
- Explain that multiplying by 10 shifts each digit one place to the left
“Can your child quickly work out '4.7 × 100' or '3,600 ÷ 1,000' — knowing that digits shift left or right in the place-value chart depending on whether they're multiplying or dividing?”
