Multiply whole numbers for 5th Grade Math
Students develop multidigit multiplication from area models to partial products to the standard algorithm, then apply multiplication in one-step and multistep contexts. Estimation and explanation are used throughout to check reasonableness.
Skills and lessons
Multiply with area models and partial products
Use place-value models to show why multidigit multiplication works and connect models to partial products.
Multiply with the standard algorithm
Use the standard algorithm for 2-digit by 2-digit and 3-digit by 2-digit multiplication and check products with estimation.
Solve multiplication word problems
Apply multiplication in one-step and multistep stories where equal groups, arrays, or rates are essential.
