Doubling-and-Halving Strategy to Multiply (with Arrays)

Doubling-and-Halving Strategy to Multiply (with Arrays)

(0)
A PowerPoint which introduces the ‘Doubling-and-Halving Strategy for Multiplication’. This PowerPoint uses an array to show the multiplication strategy of doubling one factor and halving the other factor to help to work out some multiplication problems. Doubling and halving is therefore related to thinking that ‘restructures’ an array to make it more manageable to multiply (e.g. 3 × 18 = ___ can be rewritten as 6 × 9 = ___). Very visual resource which helps students see that the total number of circles in an array (the product) stays the same when an array is cut and rearranged. No text: so recommend that the teacher walks through the first couple of example slides and then students verbally explain the following examples to their peers. Order of animations: Tricky array and sum is shown. Confused smiley bounces in. (explain here that if you don’t know your 15 times table etc. this could be hard) Scissors appear and cut the array - array restructures into simpler array (double of one factor/half of the other) New corresponding sum appears - click & answer is shown Array restructures to first formation and tricky sum is shown again As the total number of circles has remained the same throughout the sequence the answer should be obvious :-) I use it alongside other strategies so that it is presented as an option for mental computation involving multiplication.

Times Table Speed Card Sorting Game
PrimaryWowPrimaryWow

Times Table Speed Card Sorting Game

(1)
Simple against the clock sorting game for students to practice times tables. Print onto card and get students to cut them out. To play the game: 1) Turn cards upside down and mix them around 2) Begin turning them over and sorting them into the correct order when the stopwatch starts. 3) Record your time for each day of the week. 4) Keep cards in an envelope ready to play the following day. I print one set for each pair of students in my class and they play as a teams against the other students in the class. (cooperative, social constructivist learning etc.) But can also be used as an individual fast finisher game. Provided are cards for the 4 times table, as that is what my class are learning this week, but very easy to edit for any times table. Provided three versions: one with the 'x symbol, multiplicand. & = symbol' on one card (least number of pieces) [this version also includes 4 wrong answers to make it a little more difficult] , one with 2 digit product on one card (harder), and one with each digit on separate cards (hardest, and also easiest for them to lose cards of ;-))
Square Numbers Introduction

Square Numbers Introduction

(0)
Visual introduction to square number patterns . Useful as a visual introduction to exploring square numbers and/or as a lesson starter. A square is slowly built by adding the next odd number of squares to the first to make a bigger square (number). 3 animated slides (don't bore your students too much, just use 1 a lesson) *Slide 1 uses a growing pattern of odd numbers in an addition sentence (underneath the square) to create square numbers. *Slide 2 uses the above plus the matching multiplication sentence. *Slide 3 uses the visual and only the multiplication sentence. I like to show slide 1 with just the addition sentence first off and impress my students with my quick fire maths skills ;-) "1+3+5+7+11+13+15+17+19+21+23 = 135". The following day I'll teach them the trick of multiplication. A few of my higher ability will be able to answer the addition sentences on their own at the end of a lesson. You'll need a bit of patience as the squares reveal themselves. Hope students around the world enjoy it (?) and that it makes multiplication that little more understandable. Please rate and comment politely, all my resources are shared freely.

Division Inverse of Multiplication Speed Math

Beginner division speed math worksheets introducing/reinforcing division as being the inverse of multiplication - "Think multiplication" (to do division) Files - 'speed division inverse of multiplication_worksheet1' & 2 present multiplication turnaround facts followed by matching inverse division facts in groups of 4. e.g. 5 x 2 = 2 x 5 = 10 ÷ 2 = 10 ÷ 5 = File - 'speed division inverse of multiplication_using multi to divide_missing multiplier2_4_6_8_9' Present only one multiplication followed it's inverse division, in columns of facts for 2, 4, 6, 8, and 9 times tables: e.g. 2s Facts 2 x ___ = 18 18 ÷ 2 = 2 x ___ = 14 14 ÷ 2 = Other worksheet presents mixed problems with the multiplication having the missing multiplier e.g 2 x ___ = 18 18 ÷ 2 = Students are therefore encouraged to 'think multiplication' when doing division.
