Unit focus

  • Students use one multiplicative relationship to generate related multiplication and division equations, solve unknowns and extend facts by scaling factors and products.
  • Use this routine: Represent → Reason → Calculate → Interpret → Verify.
  • Watch for division fact uses a different product: Related facts must preserve the same whole.
