The basic idea of multiplication is repeated addition and it can also be visualized as groups of equal objects or numbers, arrays, and skip counting. This worksheet is to show students the different strategies of understanding multiplication.

This activity is good for students learning to visualize numbers on a number line, solidify their understanding of adding to 10, finding a missing addend, or using a number line to add. It can be used as a center, morning activity, with a partner, or as support. Print and cut the cards. Laminate if desired. Or print both sheets onto one piece of paper and have students cut and paste into their math journals or another piece of paper.

This activity is to help students understand the multiple ways to add multi-digit numbers. Each strategy has an example, which the student can review step-by-step with the teacher or peer. Then, the student should use the strategy on the example next to it using a whiteboard or their math journal. This type of activity works well in pairs or individually.
