Word Problems- Introduction to Multiplication

Word Problems- Introduction to Multiplication
View Curriculum Codes   
Description

This worksheet has been designed to provide students opportunities to create word problems using multiplication and division. Students are provided visuals, in the form of arrays, which they then create a number story and sentence to solve. There are two levels for differentiation purposes. This resource is part of a larger Unit of Work- Year 2- Introduction to Multiplication.
 

Suitable for
  • Fast Finishers
  • Relief Teachers
  • Parents
