Multiplication, division, and more complex problem-solving strategies for third grade students.

Study Strategies

Drawing and Modeling

Visualizing Problems

Drawing pictures or using objects helps you see multiplication and division problems clearly. You can make arrays, use counters, or even draw groups and equal shares.

  • Draw circles for groups and add objects inside.
  • Make a grid or array to show rows and columns.
  • Use blocks or coins for hands-on practice.

This approach makes math fun and helps you understand each step!

Examples

  • Draw 3 groups with 4 stars in each group to show \(3 \times 4\).

  • Use 12 counters and split them into 3 equal groups to solve \(12 \div 3\).
