Multiplication Unit

Multiplication in 3rd Grade

This week we kicked off our month-long study on multiplication. We'll spend several weeks understanding the concept of multiplication by drawing pictures, creating arrays, and using repeated addition. NOTE: Third graders are NOT expected to know and memorize every multiplication fact. However, students should have a solid foundation of some of the easier facts, such as multiples of 2, 4, 5, 10, and 11.
