Multiply by Eleven - PowerPoint

In a set of engaging maths teaching resources aimed at Year 4 pupils, the focus is on mastering the skill of multiplying by 11. The lesson sets out to demonstrate how to work out multiples of 11 through clear, incremental steps. Starting with simple examples, such as '2 groups of 11 pears make 22', students are encouraged to translate this into a multiplication sentence, '2 x 11 = 22'. The resources systematically build up from 0 x 11, which equals 0, signifying no groups of 11, to 12 x 11, which equals 132, helping students visualise and understand the concept of multiplication as the addition of groups.

These resources not only provide the multiplication facts up to 12 x 11 but also include top tips to help students remember key points, such as even numbers multiplied by 11 result in even numbers, and similarly, odd numbers yield odd results. Additionally, there is a reminder that multiplying any number by 0 always results in 0. To reinforce the learning, students are invited to answer questions on subsequent slides and worksheets, including a 'Multiply by Eleven Worksheet' where they fill in the blanks to complete multiplication sentences. For interactive classroom engagement, there's an activity where students form a chain by finding the correct multiples of 11, and for consolidation, flashcards are provided for practice and review.
