Unit 5- Relating Multiplication to Division
Learning Goal: Student will understand strategies to include mental
math, partial products, and properties of operations, and algorithms,
including the standard algorithm, can be used to multiply numbers
(multiplication of whole numbers within 100).
! You and your student can practice multiplying the way you already know-
simply by multiplying ones, tens, and hundreds separately, and then add.
Be sure to include any regrouped values while multiplying. Both of you
can create your own problems.
! You and your student can practice on baking pans with magnetic letters
to make it a real fun and engaging experience together.

pictorial models, including arrays, area models, and equal groups;
properties of operations; or recall of facts can be used to solve
multiplication and division problems (one-step multiplication and
division of whole numbers within 100).

drawing or creating array models to solve problems.
! You and your student can practice multiplication and division facts until
they become automatic with card games. Then, track their mastery with a
chart to show when a fact is mastered consistently.

Learning Goal: Student will understand that when multiplying and
dividing two non-zero whole numbers, the product will always be
larger than each of the factors and the quotient will always be smaller
than the dividend (multiplication/division of whole numbers within
100).
! You and your student can practice multiplying and dividing with playing
cards.
! You and your student can play Tic-Tac-Toe. You will need nine sheets of
white and/or notebook paper. You will write a big tic-tac-toe grid on all
nine sheets of paper that fills up the entire sheet. You will then write
unsolved equations in all portions of the tic-tac-toe grids to have a total of
nine equations on each sheet of paper. You and your child will then take
turns answering equations trying to answer three in a row. Once a player
wins on one sheet, that player keeps that sheet. This will continue on with
the rest of the sheets until one player wins three sheets in a row.
! You and your student can use the Internet to reinforce how the answers
will be different for multiplying and dividing.

distinguished as either partitive division (also known as measurement
division) or quotative division (division of whole numbers within 100).
! You and your student can practice making word problems like the ones
listed in the website below.
! You and your student can be creative and use things around the house for
your word problems.

Learning Goal: Student will understand the relationships that exist
between the terms in multiplication and division equations and
situations and how the product of a multiplication fact becomes the
dividend in its related division fact (multiplication and division of
whole numbers within 100).


! You and your student can play spiral multiplication and division game
with a deck of cards. Use the deck of cards to make a spiral game board
starting from the center. Place your game pieces at the start (center).
Player 1 rolls the die. Player 1 multiplies/divides the number on the die
by the card the game piece is on. If they are correct, they move the
number of spaces the die shows. If they are incorrect, they do not get to
move. Take turns and repeat until someone reaches the end (last card on
the outside of the spiral).
! You and your student can use the Internet to reinforce the relationships
between multiplication and division.

Learning Goal: Student will understand that a number divisible by 2 is an
even number, whereas a number not divisible by 2 is an odd number.

both decide who is going to be odd and even. Player 1 draws a card
and if the number is what they chose (odd or even) they write the
number from the card on their recording sheet. If the card is not what
they chose (odd/even), his/her turn is over. The first person to 50 points
wins. The winning total can always be adjusted. You can always
substitute the cards for dice.
! You and your student can use the Internet to reinforce odd and even
numbers.

factors and the other contains the product.
! You and your student can roll two dice and multiply the 2 numbers they
rolled together.

either side of the domino together.
! You and your student can use the Internet and apps to reinforce
automaticity with multiplication/division.

denominator. This symbolizes that a fraction can be broken down into its
individual unit fractions- is the same + +
! Then, allow your student to compose (+) and decompose (-) fractions.
They will love it!
! You and your student can use the Internet to reinforce fractions.

Learning Goal: Student will solve problem situations involving dividing
an object or a set of objects that are related to fractions (fractions with
denominators of 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8).
! You and your student can take a group of items around the house-
buttons, types of snacks, small toys, etc., separating them, and creating
fractions. For example, out the 8 buttons you gather, 4 are red- 4/8
would be the fraction you would write.
