Stage 3, mathematics, Year A – Unit 07

This 2-week unit develops the big idea that multiplicative thinking involves flexible use of multiplication and division concepts, strategies and representations.

Students are provided opportunities to:

  • determine products and factors
  • use partitioning and place value to multiply 2, 3 and 4-digit numbers by one-digit numbers
  • represent and solve division problems with whole number remainders.

Represents numbers A – MAO-WM-01, MA3-RN-01

  • Whole numbers: Recognise, represent and order numbers in the millions
  • Whole numbers: Apply place value to partition, regroup and rename numbers to 1 billion

Multiplicative relations A – MAO-WM-01, MA3-MR-01, MA3-MR-02

  • Determine products and factors
  • Use partitioning and place value to multiply 2-, 3- and 4-digit numbers by one-digit numbers
  • Select and apply mental and written strategies to multiply 2- and 3-digit numbers by 2-digit numbers
  • Represent and solve division problems with whole number remainders
  • Select and apply strategies to divide a number with 3 or more digits by a one-digit divisor
  • Use estimation and rounding to check the reasonableness of answers to calculations

Multiplicative relations B – MAO-WM-01, MA3-MR-01, MA3-MR-02

Explore the use of brackets and the order of operations to write number sentences
