Mathematical Standards

5.NBT.B
Perform operations with multidigit whole numbers and with decimals to hundredths. (5.NBT.B.5)

Standards for Mathematical Practice

MP1.
Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
MP2.
Reason quantitatively.
MP4.
Model with mathematics.
MP6.
Attend to precision.
MP7.
Look for and make use of structure.

Students explore the relationship between place value and multiplication. Students develop two paper-and-pencil strategies for multidigit multiplication—the all-partials method and the compact method.

Content in this Lesson

  • Multiplying multidigit numbers using mental math and paper-and-pencil methods (all-partials, compact) [E4].
  • Demonstrating understanding of the place value concepts and mathematical properties involved in multiplication of multidigit numbers [E1].
  • Showing connections between models and strategies for multiplication (e.g., demonstrate partial products using a rectangle model for multiplication) [E2].
  • Estimating products to check the reasonableness of answers [E5].
  • Estimating sums, differences, and products [E5].
