The worksheet titled "Formal multiplication 2-digits by 2-digits" is a comprehensive resource designed to help Year 6 students master the concept of long multiplication. According to the National Curriculum objective, students are expected to multiply numbers up to four digits by one or two digits using a formal written method. The worksheet provides differentiated sheets and teaching slides to cater to varying levels of student ability. Key vocabulary terms such as multiplication, calculation, represent, column method, exchange, and product are essential for understanding the process and are explored throughout the lesson.

Students progress from using the area model to more formal methods of multiplication, focusing on the significance of the zero in the column method. They are encouraged to comprehend each step of the calculation process. Questions like "Why is the zero important?" and "When do we need to make an exchange?" guide students to a deeper understanding. The worksheet tasks begin with multiplying numbers by 11-19, highlighting the role of the tens digit, and then advance to multiplying larger numbers. As students become more confident, they move from completing partially laid out calculations to performing full calculations independently in their books. The worksheet also challenges students with reasoning and problem-solving questions, where they must identify and correct mistakes in sample calculations, further enhancing their multiplication skills.
