In this unit...
Students will understand that...
There are many ways to represent a quantity, but the best way is based on the problem in front of you.
There are multiple strategies and methods for finding a mathematical solution.
The relationship among the operations and their properties increases their flexibility as mathematicians.
Patterns and relationships can be represented physically, graphically, numerically, symbolically or verbally.
Students will keep considering the following questions:

Students will keep considering the following questions:
divisibility rules help to identify factors of numbers.
What strategy am I using to solve the problem? Does it work? Is there another way to solve it?
How do mathematical operations relate to each other?
How can I use objects and pictures to solve different types of problems?
What pattern do I see? How can I describe it? How does that help me solve this problem?
Students will work on the following skills/concepts:
multiplication and division methods and facts
a multiplication expression is a comparison between the number of groups times the amount in each group.
different ways to represent multiplication and division.
multiplication and division are inverse operations.
multiplication and division can be represented by combining and partitioning equal groups.
divisibility rules help to identify factors of numbers.
Students will be skilled at:
recalling basic multiplication facts with automaticity.
applying the mathematical process standards.
identifying patterns in related multiplication and division facts.
applying the divisibility rule for a given number.
determining the unknown using the relationship of multiplication and division.
determining if a number is odd or even.
solving multiplication and division problems using objects, pictorial models, properties of operations or recall of facts
representing multiplication and division using repeated addition, equal-sized groups, arrays, area models, equal jumps on a number line, and skip counting
