Big Idea
Computational fluency and flexibility with numbers extend to operations with larger (multi-digit) numbers.
Elaboration
- Computational Fluency: Computational fluency develops from a strong sense of number.
- Sample questions to support inquiry with students:
- How many different ways can you solve…? (e.g., 16 x 7)
- What flexible strategies can we apply to use operations with multi-digit numbers?
- How does fluency with basic multiplication facts (e.g., 2x, 3x, 5x) help us compute more complex multiplication facts?
