Multiplication Strategies



My Reflection

 I found the doubling & halving the easiest because I am really good at doubling & halving, I found the place value strategy quite easy too because I have had a lot of practice using this strategy.

 My next step is to understand the compensation strategy better because I found the adding and subtracting confusing.

adding in parts strategy





My Reflection-
I have been learning to solve addition problems using the adding in parts strategy.  I found adding the tidy numbers easy, rather than trying add without rounding up.  I think my next step is to working larger numbers like 389 + 491.

Making and Breaking Numbers-20

My Reflection-
I was learning that numbers can be made & broken up in a number of different ways.
I found it easy because I was able to think up combinations quickly.
I also started with easy ones and moved on to harder ones.
My next step is to use more multiplication & division.
