In This Unit of Study…

Once students have a strong conceptual understanding of how to represent multiplication, they gain efficiency with the calculations and are ready to become fluent with the standard algorithm.

B.E.S.T. Benchmarks:

  • MA.5.NSO.2.1 Multiply multidigit whole numbers including using a standard algorithm with procedural fluency.
  • MA.5.AR.1.1 Solve multi-step real-world problems involving any combination of the four operations with whole numbers, including problems in which remainders must be interpreted within the context.  

Overarching Key Concepts:

  • Multiply multi-digit whole numbers with procedural fluency
