Represent the 10 times table in different ways

Lesson details

Learning outcome

I can represent the 10 times table in different ways.

Key learning points

  1. The 10 times table can be represented in different ways with groups of 10
  2. The 10 times table can be recorded as skip counting in 10 on a number line.
  3. The number of counts is one of the factors and the skip size of 10 is the other factor.
  4. The 10 times table can be represented using multiplication equations.

Keywords

  • Skip count - Counting in steps of equal size. For example, skip counting in twos means to count in equal steps of two.

  • Factor - A factor is a number which exactly divides another whole number.

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

Common misconception

Children may struggle to count in multiples of 10s and recognise this as groups of 10

Use of concrete resources: 10 frame and 10 p coins can support children to practise skip counting in 10s. Then move onto counting in 10s on a number line.

Teacher tip

Take every opportunity to count in groups of 10 to support fluency and recall of multiplication facts.
