Module 4: multiplication and area
Students will be able to:
- Form rectangles by tiling with unit squares to make arrays
- Draw rows and columns to determine the area of a rectangle, given an incomplete array
- Interpret area models to form rectangular arrays
- Find the area of a rectangle through multiplication of the side lengths
- Apply the distributive property as a strategy to find the total area of a large rectangle by adding two products
- Demonstrate the possible whole number side lengths of rectangles with areas of 24, 36, 48, or 72 square units using the associative property
- Solve word problems involving area
- Find areas by decomposing into rectangles or completing composite figures to form rectangles
