Unit 3: Multiply Multi-Digit Whole Numbers


Unit Overview: In Unit 3, students focus on developing a deep understanding of multi-digit multiplication using whole numbers. Students will use the standard algorithm to fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers.


Learning Objectives


(IN2020) 5.C.1

Multiply multi-digit whole numbers fluently using a standard algorithmic approach.


(IN2020) 5.NS.4

Explain patterns in the number of zeros of the product when multiplying a number by powers of 10, and explain patterns in the placement of the decimal point when a decimal is multiplied or divided by a power of 10. Use whole-number exponents to denote powers of 10.


(IN2020) 5.AT.1

Solve real-world problems involving multiplication and division of whole numbers (e.g. by using equations to represent the problem). In division problems that involve a remainder, explain how the remainder affects the solution to the problem.
