Gr 3-4 Session 2: Multiplication Mavericks

Multiplication Mavericks, Get Ready to Multiply! Join our Math Workshop Session and become a whiz at multiplying numbers including those multiples of 10 (like 20, 50, and 90). We’ll use clever strategies based on place value – understanding those tens and ones – and the magic of multiplication properties to solve problems like a pro! We will use conceptual understanding with visuals and hands-on tools to make sense of multiplication like arrays, area model, and more. Other multiplication strategies we will explore: repeated addition or skip counting, partial products as it relates to the distributive property, doubling and halving, and breaking factors into smaller factors as it relates to the associative property. Get ready for fun games and activities that will make you a multiplication superstar! Let’s multiply and master those multiplication facts together! We will also make a case for the connection between multiplication and division. Some division strategies we will explore: repeated subtraction or sharing/dealing out, partial quotients, and proportional reasoning. Join us!
