Lesson 17: Let’s show what we know!
Students will show their knowledge of all the key ideas from this multiplication unit. Please note, you can either complete an onscreen assessment or a printed version of the assessment.
Lesson 16: Let’s solve 2-digit multiplication problems
Students will continue to use place value dots/counters to multiply 2-digit numbers by 1-digit numbers. Students will create and solve 2-digit x 1-digit number sentences that match each challenge.
Lesson 15: Let’s multiply 2-digit numbers by 1-digit numbers
This lesson focuses on using place value dots/counters to multiply 2-digit numbers by 1-digit numbers. This strategy helps students visualise multiplication as repeated addition. Students will help animals calculate their beach spending totals.
Lesson 14: Let’s apply multiplication to calculate area
Students will apply and consolidate the multiplication skills, strategies and knowledge gained in this unit to design an epic room. They will apply multiplication to area. Please note, area will also be explored in more detail in our measurement unit.
Lesson 13: Let’s solve multiplication word problems
Students will apply their multiplication knowledge and the REPS strategy to solve word problems and crack a code to solve a joke
Lesson 12: Let’s multiply by 8
Students will explore strategies to effectively multiply by 8, such as doubling one factor 3 times or doubling the product of multiplying by 4. Students will practice multiplying by 8 by finding a pathway to a golden egg.
Lesson 11: Let’s multiply by 4
Students will explore strategies for multiplying by 4, such as using the ‘double, doubles’ method, where they double a number and then double it again. They will practice this technique whilst solving a mystery where they try to catch the ‘Double Double Trouble Bandits’.
Lesson 10: Let’s multiply by 3
Students will explore strategies for multiplying by 3 effectively using skip counting or doubling and adding an extra group. They will practice these skills by playing a game called Cat Nap.
Lesson 9: Let’s multiply by 5
Students will explore strategies for multiplying by 5, such as skip counting and using arrays. These methods will help them solve problems efficiently and build confidence in their multiplication skills. They will apply their knowledge by planning a party for 5 guests.
Lesson 8: Let’s multiply by 10
Students will revisit the connection between each place value column and use this information to begin to multiply by ten. They will do this by exploring what happens to digits when they become 10x larger. They will practice this strategy by comparing superhero powers.
