What will students learn | In this unit, students develop their understanding of different models for multiplication and division. Students also explore the axioms of number and which operations they apply to. The unit begins by looking at structures which lead to multiplication and the different models that can be associated with these structures. The array model is developed to explore the commutativity of multiplication. The array model is again used to introduce the associativity and distributivity axioms | ||
Key Knowledge that students should know at the end of 'Topic' | This is the knowledge that students will meet for the first time in this topic |
Explore contexts leading to multiplication and division calculations Develop and interpret models for multiplication and division Define commutativity of multiplication Use arrays to derive fact families Use commutativity of multiplication to solve division problems Develop models for the commutativity of multiplication Define associativity of multiplication Develop models for the associativity of multiplication Develop understanding of the distributive property of multiplication over addition Use the distributive property to calculate efficiently Use the commutative, associative and distributive properties to describe relationships between different multiplication tables Explore common multiples Explore conjectures using tracking calculations Use algebraic notation to represent distributivity Use understanding of the axioms to calculate using a range of strategies deciding on most efficient |
