Max Maths, Year 4, Work Book, Multiplication review

The Max Maths workbook for Year 4 includes a comprehensive section on multiplication review, aimed to help students practice and solidify their multiplication skills. In the first practice exercise, students are encouraged to complete a series of multiplication problems mentally, testing their recall of the times tables. The problems range from simple calculations like 3 × 4 and 5 × 1, to more challenging ones such as 9 × 9 and 8 × 9. This exercise is designed to boost the students' confidence in their ability to quickly and accurately multiply numbers, an essential skill in mathematics.

Further exercises in the workbook present students with slightly more complex challenges where they must fill in the missing numbers to complete multiplication equations. For example, they need to determine the missing multiplier when given a product, such as in 4 × _ = 40, or the missing product when given one number, such as in _ × 60 = 0. There's also a multiplication table to be completed, where students fill in the gaps to reinforce their understanding of the relationships between numbers. This section of the workbook is designed to enhance mental arithmetic and provide a thorough review of multiplication, preparing students for more advanced mathematical concepts.
