IS EQUAL GROUPINGS IT? Multiplication Using Tools, Models, and Strategies
March 8, 2019, 2:00 PM – 3:15 PM, Ruffner 116
Repeated addition. Equal groupings. Distributive property. Teaching multiplication should not be string of ways to solve problem with leaps from one strategy to the next. This presentation outlines tools, models, and strategies to help teachers identify and choose appropriate pathways based upon where students are, opposed to where the textbook is.
