A product is the result of two or more numbers multiplied together.

An equation is used to show that one number or calculation is equal to another. Multiplication equations use × and = symbols.

A factor is a number which exactly divides another whole number.

Identify and explain each part of a multiplication equation

Maths

Explain that objects can be grouped in different ways

Describe how objects have been grouped

Represent equal groups as repeated addition

Represent equal groups as repeated addition and multiplication

In this unit pupils will describe how objects are grouped and will represent equal groups as repeated addition and multiplication. In the future unit pupils will represent the 2x and 10x table in different ways using 2x/10x table to solve problems. They will explain the relationship between adjacent multiples of 2/10 and that factor pairs can be written in any order.

In the prior unit pupils extended their counting to counting the decade numbers and made representations using a variety of different manipulatives. In this unit pupils will describe how objects are grouped and will represent equal groups as repeated addition and multiplication.
