Maths Resource Description
The "Max Maths" Year 3 workbook provides engaging exercises for children to practice multiplying by 10 and doubling numbers mentally. Practice 4 is divided into several sections that progressively build a student's confidence in handling multiplication and doubling concepts. In the first section, students are asked to multiply given numbers by 10. This task is structured in a way that encourages students to recognize patterns and understand that multiplying by 10 adds a zero to the number in the units place. The exercise includes a mix of direct multiplication questions and those that require the student to add two products together, reinforcing their understanding of the process.
Section 2 shifts the focus to mental multiplication, challenging students to multiply various numbers by 10 without the need for written calculations. This activity is designed to enhance mental arithmetic skills and help students quickly identify the results of multiplying by 10. The numbers chosen for this exercise range from smaller to larger values to cater to different levels of difficulty. In the third section, students double the numbers represented by counting blocks, which visually supports their understanding of the concept of doubling. This practical approach makes the abstract concept of multiplication more concrete. Finally, the workbook includes exercises where students must underline the number that is 10 times the orange number and circle the number that is double the brown number, further reinforcing their grasp of multiplication and doubling through comparison and identification within a set of numbers.
