COMMUTATIVE MultiplyingI will give you multiplication sentences. Use the commutative property to “Move It, Move It!” and give me an equivalent equation:

3 x 2 = 6 5 x 2 = 102 x 3 = 6 2 x 5 = 10

3 x 4 = 12 2 x 8 = 164 x 3 = 12 8 x 2 = 16

3 x 7 = 21 5 x 3 = 157 x 3 = 21 3 x 5 = 15

Decompose & Multiply

In your math journal write the multiplication sentence for 7 fours:

7 x 4Now write:

(5 fours) + ( _____ fours ) = 7 foursWhat goes in the blank?

2

Decompose & Multiply

(5 fours) + ( 2 fours ) = 7 fours=

20 + 8 = 28

Let’s try it again!

In your math journal write the multiplication sentence for 8 twos:

8 x 2Now write:

(5 twos) + ( _____ twos ) = 8 twosWhat goes in the blank?

3

(5 twos) + ( 3 twos ) = 8 twos=

10 + 6 = 16

Divide by Breaking Apart❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂

24 ÷ 2 = ______

Let’s use the array to solve. Here is one way to break apart the array.

20 ÷ 2 = 10 and 4 ÷ 2 = 2

10 + 2 = 12

Divide by Breaking ApartThe twins are having a birthday party! They invite 27 people.

ALL THE PEOPLE ARE TRIPLETS!! One twin invited 15 people.How many sets of triplets attended the birthday party?

How many triplets did each twin invite?

Concept Development❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂❂

Let’s use an array to solve.

27 ÷ 3 = ?

15 ÷ 3 = 5 and 12 ÷ 3 = 4

5 + 4 = 9

9 SETS OF TRIPLETS ATTENDED THE PARTY.One twin invited 5 sets; the other twin invited 4 sets.

27 ÷ 3 = 9
