A few articles back, I published a video called Long Division with Playing Cards.  I did it super-fast in response to a comment at  Living Math Forum.

I’ve pondered this a bunch since then and decided I like the idea, but the playing cards are too cumbersome. I ran across a game called Sumology (from Simply Fun) at the Texas Home School Coalition Convention. The heavens parted and angels sang.

Or at least my heart started beating and my head started spinning.

So here’s the same teaching method, but with a little more pizzazz and a couple of free downloads:

• Long Division with Sumology Number Tiles Board
• Long Division with Sumology Number Tiles Tile Backs

What do you think? Will your child like it? Please share your thoughts in the comments.
