Primary 2 - Number and Algebra: Whole Numbers

Standard 2.NA-WN.3 - Understand the relationship between multiplication and division to solve the equation.

Included Skills:

Multiplication and Division
• 3.1 multiplication tables of 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10
• 3.2 use of ÷
• 3.3 relationship between multiplication and division
• 3.4 multiplying and dividing within the multiplication tables
• 3.5 solving 1-step word problems involving multiplication and division within the multiplication tables
• 3.6 mental calculation involving multiplication and division within the multiplication tables of 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10
• 3.7 work in groups to make multiplication and division stories, write a multiplication or division equation for each story and explain the meaning of the equal sign.
• 3.8 use concrete objects and pictorial representations to illustrate the concepts of multiplication and division such as 'multiplying 3 by 5' and 'dividing 12 by 4'.
• 3.9 explore number patterns in the multiplication tables of 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10 through activities such as colouring the hundred chart.
• 3.10 achieve mastery of multiplication and division facts by
- using multiplication-fact cards and division-fact cards.
- playing games, including applets and digital games.
- writing a family of 4 basic facts within the multiplication tables given any one of the basic facts (e.g. 3 x 4 = 12, 4 x 3 = 12, 12 ÷ 4 = 3 and 12 ÷ 3 = 4 are a family of multiplication and division facts).
• 3.11 work in groups to create word problems (with pictorial representation if necessary) involving multiplication and division for other groups to solve.
• 3.12 solve non-routine problems using heuristics such as 'act it out' and 'draw a diagram' and share their ideas.
