Lesson details
Key learning points

- If the product of the ones digits is greater than ten, the partial product will be a 2-digit number.
- There are similarities between the representations of multiplication.
Keywords
Regrouping - The process of unitising and exchanging between place values is known as regrouping.
Expanded multiplication - Expanded multiplication is a way of recording a calculation focusing on partitioning one or more factors and showing partial products.
Common misconception
Pupils may not align or regroup correctly leading to an inaccurate calculation.
Continue to ask what each digit that has been recorded represents. Demonstrate the regrouping using base ten blocks to help.
