Using an area model, or box model, to teach multiplication is an excellent way to build conceptual understanding that the standard algorithm for multiplication does not provide. For the past two years, I have used only area models when teaching multiplication and I have seen a HUGE improvement in accuracy and number sense.

Included in this resource:
-Base ten sort
-Task cards (Interactive via Google slides or regular)
-3 Independent assessment pages
-2 Organizers for your struggling students.
+ ALL ANSWER KEYS ARE INCLUDED!

This would be a great addition to anyone teaching or reviewing the concept of multiplication with a focus on place value.
