Stage 2, mathematics, Year B – Unit 33
This 2-week, Year B unit develops the big idea that multiplicative thinking involves flexible use of multiplication and division concepts, strategies and representations.
In this 2-week unit, students are provided opportunities to:
- investigate and apply the use of multiples to determine unknown values
- use number properties to find related multiplication facts
- represent and solve word problems with number sentences involving multiplication or division.
Representing numbers using place value A – MAO-WM-01, MA2-RN-01
Whole numbers: Apply place value to partition and regroup numbers up to 4 digits
Representing numbers using place value B – MAO-WM-01, MA2-RN-01
- Whole numbers: Apply place value to partition, regroup and rename numbers up to 6 digits
- Whole numbers: Recognise and represent numbers that are 10, 100 or 1000 times as large
Multiplicative relations A – MAO-WM-01, MA2-MR-01
- Use arrays to establish multiplication facts from multiples of 2 and 4, 5 and 10
- Represent and solve problems involving multiplication fact families
Multiplicative relations B – MAO-WM-01, MA2-MR-01
- Investigate number sequences involving related multiples
- Use known number facts and strategies
- Use the structure of the area model to represent multiplication and division
- Use number properties to find related multiplication facts
- Operate with multiples of 10
- Represent and solve word problems with number sentences involving multiplication or division
