Find out why over SEVEN HUNDRED teachers are using this resource in their classrooms!

  • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I could not have taught multiplication without this lesson!! It is very easy to use and understand!”

  • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I loved this lesson! I used it with 6th graders as review before we jumped into multiplying decimals.”

  • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “My kids loved this resource! It was very helpful to transition from whole group, to small group, to independent work”

  • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “This lesson was perfect! It helped my son keep up with his math class while on vacation.”

Each word problem asks students to:

★Estimate the Product (round each number to the greatest place and multiply)

★Model or Visualize (draw a picture of what is happening)

★Solve (using an area model or box model)

★Sentence (write the answer in a complete sentence to show you understand it in context)

Want to know a secret? Area models are the secret to success with multiplication! They build a deep conceptual understanding that the standard algorithm for multiplication does not provide. For the past 9 years, I have used only area models when teaching multiplication (no standard algorithm) and I have seen a HUGE improvement in accuracy and number sense in my students.
