Lesson details

Key learning points

  1. Partition one of the factors.
  2. Calculate the partial products.
  3. Add the partial products to recombine.

Keywords

  • Partial product - Any of the multiplication results we get leading up to an overall multiplication result is a partial product.

Common misconception

Children lack fluency and recall in multiplication tables and therefore lose the thread of longer multiplication strategies.

Providing multiplication grids and / or adapting questions to focus on known multiplication tables can support learners to focus on the steps of an algorithm.

This lesson uses Olympics and similar large-scale sport events as contexts for multiplication of larger integers. If adapting contexts, consider real-life contexts in which pupils will encounter 3-digit numbers and have reason to multiply these.
