What others say
Description
Better than worksheets, this lesson workbook walks students step-by-step through using the distributive property and the box method of multiplication. It includes lessons that teach students how to break apart a number into its expanded form, multiply each part separately, and then add the partial products back together.
This is especially helpful for students who have difficulty with the standard algorithm. Instead of constantly switching back and forth between multiplying, carrying, multiplying, adding, carrying, etc., students do all of the multiplying at one time and then all of the addition with minimal carrying.
Even if students are doing well with the standard algorithm, this format helps them see how the distributive property works and gives them a more solid understanding of place value when multiplying multi-digit numbers.
Included:
★ 7 Lessons on Multiplying Numbers Ending with Zeros
★ 3 Lessons on Using the Distributive Property to Multiply
★ 6 Lessons on the Box Method of Multiplication
★ 6 Blank Templates for Using the Box Method
★ Version for Older Students Without Decorative Clip Art
Please download the preview for more details.
✎ Each lesson is presented in model, guided practice, independent practice format.
✎ Step-by-step task analysis is embedded in each sheet.
✎ No prep required.
Students will be able to:
• Multiply numbers ending in zeros
• Solve 1x2, 1x3, and 1x4 digit problems using the distributive property
• Solve 1x2, 1x3, 1x4, 2x2, 2x3, and 3x3 digit problems using the box method
Note: This product does NOT include detailed scripted lesson plans—only the short and simple lessons as shown in the preview. Please look at the preview carefully and ask me any questions you have before you buy.
Middle School and High School Special Education Math Teachers:
This now includes a version with no decorative clip art at the top of pages or on the student booklet cover. Everything else is exactly the same, but you won’t need to worry about whether the clip art might be too young for your students.

Hi! I am a Special Education & Title 1 teacher interested in task analysis. My resources break tasks into small and explicit steps, reducing cognitive load for learners so they can feel successful and confident rather than overwhelmed and reluctant to try. I also strive to lighten the workload of teachers by making resources as practical and easy-to-use as possible. I sincerely hope my work can benefit you and your students.
