6-9.
Materials
- Ssmall bead frame
- Paper and pencil
Preparation
Presentation
- Write down the problem 2 x 10 =.
- Perform this on the frame by sliding forward groups of two beads, changing as necessary.
- Record the product 2 x 10 = 20.
- Repeat the process in the problem 20 x 10 =.
- Record the product 20 x 10 = 200.
- Try this problem 2 x 100 =.
- It would take all day and most of the night to bring forward 100 groups of two beads.
- Recall from the multiplication game-Multiplication by 10, 10, 1000 the simple way to do this.
- Slide forward the 2 beads to correspond to the multiplicand.
- We can multiply 1 x 100 and get 100-slide the one unit back, and slide one hundred forward.
- Repeat for the second unit.
- Record the product 2 x 100 = 200.
- "We went from units to the hundreds. How many jumps did we have to take?" 2
- "How many zero's are in the product?" 2
- "The two zero's indicate that we have passed two hierarchies".
- Do many other examples, i.e. 2 x 1000 = to be sure that the child is very comfortable and familiar with this process.
Control Of Error
Points Of Interest
We are limited by the frame to having a multiplicand of only one digit when the multiplier is 1000 and viceversa.
Purpose
- Tto understand of the use of the small bead frame in performing multiplication.
- To reinforce the concepts of the relative positions of the hierarchies, and changing from one hierarchy to another.
