Description
This is a set of 12 slides with one step multiplication word problems.
The wording of the problems allows students to think, for instance why does one problem that involves a week only have five days while the other problem that uses a week has seven days?
Students are also introduced to problems that are sometimes tricky like:
Stephen and his 3 friends ate pizza, vs. Stephen gave his 3 friends pizza. In one example you would multiply by 3 whereas the other you would multiply by 4.
Commutative property has been used across some slides: one slide might be 2 x 7 while another is 7 x 2.
The moveable pieces and strip diagrams allow students to visualize multiplication as being equal groups.
These slides were very thoughtfully put together, I hope your students will gain a better understanding of multiplication through their use.
