This interactive Google Slides lesson introduces the concepts of basic multiplication and division and includes concrete modeling of both operations to build conceptual understanding. It's perfect for introducing multiplication and division in 3rd grade math or reviewing it in 4th grade.

Students will:

• Watch a 4.5 minute video demonstrating the difference between multiplication and division using concrete modeling (YouTube and Loom viewing options).
• Drag and drop objects on the next 8 slides to practice modeling the two operations disguised as an engaging baking activity.
• Type answers into text boxes to solve 4 multiplication and 4 division problems.

Assign this ready-to-go interactive lesson through Google Classroom (be sure to make a copy for each student so they can edit) and enjoy all the time you just saved! An answer key is included.

This lesson is part of an interactive unit that covers concrete modeling of multiplication and division, strategies for multiplying and dividing, division vocabulary, strategies for basic division with remainders, factors and multiples, prime and composite numbers, and properties of multiplication (identity, zero, commutative, and distributive).
