Math*Chapter 5

On to...Multiplication & Division!

Multiplication = repeated addition
Division = repeated subtraction
Multiplication: multiplying the # of items in each group by the # of groups
multiplying the # of groups by the # of items in each group.
Division: Sharing a # of items among a # of groups, divide to find the # of items in each group.
 Divide from a number of items that each group receives, to find the # of equal groups that can be formed.  
Through our new chapter of multiplication and division, students will:
Use equal groups and repeated addition to multiply
Make multiplication stories about pictures
Make multiplication sentences
Solve real world multiplication word problems
Divide to share equally
Divide by repeated subtraction or equal groups
Solve real world division word problems
This is the expectation for the chapter, so we will of course push our thinking to extend our work. :)
