Description

If your only focus is answer getting, students may never experience and grapple with and understand multiplicative properties. In this episode Pam and Kim discuss how to use models to help students progress to more sophisticated strategies using multiplicative properties.

Talking Points:

  • Modelling different strategies on area models, ratio tables, and equations
  • Using models to visualize properties
  • Strategies that use the associative property are more multiplicative than the those that use the distributive property
