The 3rd grade students at Montrose having been practicing with multiplication. Today we used an interactive Nearpod to practice multiplying in a variety of different ways on the iPads. First, students practiced with creating arrays for a given multiplication fact.

Then they had to do the opposite and figure out the multiplication sentence by determining the factors and counting up the squares to determine the product by looking at a shaded figure on the graph paper.

Next they explored multiplying using sets. They looked at a picture with a set of items and had to figure out the multiplication sentence.

Finally, students multiplied using a number line. For example. 2×4 would be 2 jumps of 4 on the number line.
