New Multiplication
Tomorrow we will have our unit test on multiplication. We have worked on estimating to check for reasonableness of answers as well as covered rectangle, expanded form, all-partials, and compact (traditional) multiplication. These steps demonstrate for students how place value is used in multiplication. Below is a video on expanded form, all-partials, and rectangle method. Keep working on those math facts. Mastery and fluency in the facts increases accuracy with multiple digit multiplication. Enjoy!
