Common misconception

Pupils may believe only multiples of 10 can compose 100 and therefore do not see four groups of 25.

Focus on practical representations e.g. bead strings and base 10 blocks where 100 can be composed and decomposed.

Multiplication equations are used to represent compositions of 100. Take time to connect these to arrays, repeated addition and ways of saying multiplication including groups of.
