Multiplication with Partial Products

 This year, we will build on what you learned in 4th grade 
as we multiply multi-digit numbers! 

Below you will find helpful vocabulary and videos that explain 
partial products and the area model method
of solving multiplication problems. 

























Remember, a multiplication chart will come in handy as you 
find partial products within the area model!  






Check out these activities, mini-lessons, and games!

Believe in the Power of Yet!




Developing the right mindset early on is crucial for a successful, happy life. When you learn that putting forth effort and using the right strategies can help you get better at things, you will feel empowered, and that will help you to try harder. When you understand that your brain is capable of growing, you will be more confident, resilient, and are not afraid to fail!











Here's a song that will get stuck in your head.

No, it's not The Wiggles, but I like to imagine that it is! 😁
