Big Idea
Development of computational fluency and multiplicative thinking requires analysis of patterns and relations in multiplication and division.
Elaboration
- Computational Fluency: Computational fluency develops from a strong sense of number.
- Sample questions to support inquiry with students:
- What is the relationship between multiplication and division?
- What patterns in our number system connect to our understanding of multiplication?
- How does fluency with basic multiplication facts (e.g., 2x, 3x, 5x) help us compute more complex multiplication facts?
