Multiplication, division, and more complex problem-solving strategies for third grade students.
Drawing pictures, making arrays, or using objects (like blocks or counters) can help you see the problem clearly. This makes it easier to solve multiplication and division problems. Try drawing groups, circles, or rows and columns to show what is happening in the problem.
Draw 4 circles and put 3 dots in each to solve \(4 \times 3\).
Use blocks to show 12 divided into 3 equal groups.
