Math class is richer and more fun when the goal is more than answer-getting!

In this episode Pam and Kim discuss how to sequence tasks to develop the foundational strategies and relationships for single digit multiplication and division: doubling, making use of ten, and partial products/quotients.

Talking Points:
Three sample sequence of tasks that use:

A product approach
Student exploration of patterns
Just in time vocabulary
Differentiation
Foundations of multiplicative reasoning, area, geometry
Contexts to develop 3 major models
Useful fact practice
Anchoring the learning
