Multiplication & Division Mission

Build multiplicative thinking — arrays, area models, equal groups, partial quotients, factors, multiples, and prime numbers.

8 activities · Work through in order for a complete lesson arc

1

Multiplication Arrays & Equal Groups Builder

Explore multiplication with arrays, equal groups, skip counting, and fact families. Visual models for times tables from 1×1 to 12×12

Start with arrays and equal groups as concrete models.

2

Area Model Multiplication Studio

Multiply 2-digit and 3-digit numbers by drawing area models. Break each number into tens and ones, compute partial products in each rectangle, and add them up to find the total.

3

Multiplicative Comparison Builder

Build and interpret 'times as many' comparisons using animated bar models. Find the product, base, or multiplier in multiplicative comparison word problems.

4

Division as Sharing & Grouping Explorer

Explore division through equal sharing and equal grouping models with visual animations, remainder highlighting, and inverse multiplication connections

5

Partial Quotients & Remainders Explorer

Divide step by step using partial quotients. Subtract friendly multiples, stack the quotients, and find remainders. Practice with word problems that ask what to do with the leftover.

6

Factors & Multiples Playground

Find all factor pairs of a number and see them as rectangular arrays. Explore multiples, identify prime and composite numbers, and discover GCF and LCM with a Venn diagram.

7

Prime & Composite Detective

Determine whether numbers are prime or composite by building all possible rectangular arrays. Sort numbers into Prime and Composite bins and discover that 1 is neither.

Capstone — identify primes and explore factor trees.

8

Factor Tree & GCF/LCM Calculator

Build visual factor trees, find prime factorizations, and compute GCF and LCM with a Venn diagram of shared prime factors.
