Multiplication
Why Students Will Love This Lesson
Students will love the Multiplication lesson because it introduces them to the exciting world of numbers through engaging activities! By using multiplication as repeated addition, they will see how numbers work together in a fun and practical way. The mental warm-up, where they count on and back in different steps, sets a dynamic tone for the lesson. The main activity, designing a monster with multiple feet, merges creativity with math as students determine how many shoes their monsters would need. This hands-on approach makes learning multiplication relatable and enjoyable, fostering a positive attitude towards mathematics!
Sample Questions
If your monster has 4 feet, how many shoes would 3 monsters need? Write the number sentence to represent this.
How can you represent the multiplication of 5 monsters with 2 feet each? What is the total number of shoes needed?
If 10 monsters each need 3 shoes, how many shoes do you need in total? Show your working!
Benefits to Teachers
Interactive Learning: The creative monster design activity captures students’ interest, making math feel relevant and engaging.
Foundational Understanding: By relating multiplication to repeated addition, students build a solid understanding of multiplication concepts that will benefit them later in their education.
Flexible Challenges: The lesson allows for differentiation, as teachers can adjust the complexity of the problems based on individual student needs.
Visual Representation: By writing number sentences, students practice their writing skills while reinforcing their mathematical understanding.
In summary, this Multiplication lesson provides students with a hands-on, interactive experience that enhances their understanding of multiplication as repeated addition. They will gain confidence in their math skills while enjoying the creative aspects of the lesson.

I have been a keen fan of this book for a long time. I was really excited to see as part of the Open Government scheme, I was able to take this book and make it into something I believe is much more user friendly.
When I used the original book with an interactive whiteboard, I was always annoyed at having to skim to the end of the book to show an answer. I wanted it on the next page.
In addition, I have now replaced all the pictured with much more stimulating colourful pictures. I have also taken the time to follow the advice of Dudley council and sorted the different problems into age groups and blocks.
You will notice there is some repetition of problems both between blocks and in different year groups. The students can try the same problem twice at different times, as this is excellent consolidation. It is also an excellent time to suggest students think about how they could change the problem.
How can this be used in the classroom?
This could be used as an assessment at the start or the end of a unit. It also could be used as an emergency set of lessons for any teacher while covering another teacher’s maths classes.
In addition, it is also an excellent set of resources to prepare for different exams. Look at how the students resolve a problem and identify the different ways different students attempt to answer the same problem.
In addition to answering the problems, this is also an excellent time to look into inverse operations. How do we know we have found all the answers? How do we know we have found the correct answer?
I have really enjoyed making these mental maths problems a lot more accessible. I have enjoyed teaching them in a wide range of different classes and I hope that you too will enjoy making maths fun.

I have developed a series of termly Year 3 Maths assessments based on the Wigan maths assessments. I have created both Youtube videos and PowerPoints around these tests.
There are two different Year 3 Maths assessments. In the first you ask a question and everyone answers it and then you have a choice of two different assessments.
In the first, the answer appears after the question and this one is useful if you are using a Block 1 Year 3 assessment as a revision tool as everyone can discuss how they found their answer. They can also use it to see how well they are doing during their termly Year 3 assessment.
The second type is the traditional ask all the questions first, swap papers and check each of the answers which is all great and has its own merits. I hope you like this new approach to teaching maths in the classroom as I do plan to make a lot more lessons which are similar to this in the future.
