Factors,+Multiples,+and+Arrays

﻿ Welcome to **Factors, Multiples, and Arrays**! In this math unit, we will focus on multiplication and its practical applications to the real world. The //__Enduring Understandings__// below are what all fourth graders will understand by the end of this unit. The //__Essential Questions__// are the important questions that we will consider and find answers to throughout this unit. Also below are listed explanations of math problems and strategies and any other important or interesting information about our learning in math.

﻿If I have generalizable strategies, I don't need to remember a lot of specifics (i.e., if students know their doubles and their tens facts, they can use them to multiply any number by 5 (multiply by 10, divide by 2)).  Every computation strategy breaks down into simpler pieces.



What is the best way to break these numbers apart in order to compute them mentally?
