Description
Using models to develop student understanding of multiplying decimals is a powerful teaching strategy. This set of 24 task cards uses models to help students multiply decimals (tenths) by decimals (tenths). This helps students retain understanding better than just teaching them “the rule” for multiplying decimals. Additionally, state standards like Common Core and TEKS require student understanding and application of math models.
In this task card set, students will be completing two types of problems:
1) Interpreting models to write a multiplication number sentence and find the product
2) Analyzing a decimal multiplication number sentence to draw the model and find the product that matches the model
This task card set is perfect for 5th grade students before they begin multiplying decimals using the standard algorithm. Students will need supplies to color some of the models in order to complete this activity.
A recording sheet and an answer key are included. For full product details, please see the product preview.
These task cards are aligned to the following TEKS: 5.3.D
These task cards are aligned to the following Common Core State Standards: 5.NBT.7

A fun way to review
I enjoyed using the task cards for students to review. I hang them up around the room and hall and they work on them. Very fun!
Great Product!
Love this for getting students moving around the classroom or adding to a small group station.
This is a great resource! It gives the students lots of practice with how to set up the models and how to identify an equation based off of the models!
This was a very helpful resource to add to my collection.
This resource is a great way for my students to practice and review multiplying decimals while getting out of their seats!
My students love when we do these activities, they enjoy being up out of their seats and I love seeing them talking about the different strategies that they can use to solve them.
Student enjoied being able to more around while learning. Cards were clear and images were layed out nicely
My students loved using this activity. It was so fun and engaging. This is a wonderful resource
