  recall and demonstrate proficiency with multiplication facts up to 10 × 10 and related division facts, and explain the patterns in these; extend and apply facts to develop efficient mental and written strategies for computation with larger numbers without a calculator

  Elaborations

  • using arrays on grid paper or created with blocks or counters to develop, represent and explain patterns in multiplication facts up to 10 × 10; and using the arrays to explain the related division facts
  • using materials or diagrams to develop and record multiplication strategies such as doubling, halving, commutativity and adding one more or subtracting from a group to reach a known fact; for example, creating multiples of 3 on grid paper and doubling to find multiples of 6, and recording and explaining the connections to the × 3 and × 6 multiplication facts: 3, 6, 9, … doubled is 6, 12, 18, …
  • using known multiplication facts for 2, 3, 5 and 10 to establish multiplication facts for 4, 6, 7, 8 and 9 in different ways; for example, using multiples of 10 to establish the multiples of 9 as ‘to multiply a number by 9 you multiply by 10 then take the number away’: 9 × 4 = 10 × 4 − 4, so 9 × 4 is 40 − 4 = 36; or using multiples of 3 as ‘to multiply a number by 9 you multiply by 3, and then multiply the result by 3 again’
  • using arrays and known multiplication facts for twos and fives to develop the multiplication facts for sevens, applying the distributive property of multiplication; for example, when finding 6 × 7, knowing that 7 is made up of 2 and 5, and using an array to show that 6 × 7 is the same as 6 × 2 + 6 × 5 = 12 + 30, which is 42
