As I promised: divisibility rules (basically for 7 and 11)

The divisibility rules for 7 and 11 are exactly the ones students stumble on most, so a post dedicated to them is really useful. The embedded Divisibility Test video is a nice touch — hearing the rules explained a second way helps them stick. In my experience, once students trust the rule for 7, they start applying divisibility thinking to factor hunting in general. Full disclosure: I run factorcalculator.org, a free factor/LCM calculator site, which teachers sometimes use as a quick self-check after practice like this.
