recall and demonstrate proficiency with multiplication facts for \(3, 4, 5\) and \(10\); extend and apply facts to develop the related division facts

How Bloomi helps with this

This is a NAPLAN-year topic. Bloomi teaches it with a short explainer, guided practice, and NAPLAN-style questions — every one traceable to this exact code.

What this looks like in the classroom

• using concrete or virtual manipulatives, groups and repeated addition to recognise patterns and establish the \(3, 4, 5\) and \(10\) multiplication facts; ; using the language of “\(3\) groups of \(2\) equals \(6\)” to develop into “\(3\) twos are \(6\)” and extend to establish the \(3 \times 10\) multiplication facts and related division facts
• recognising that when they multiply a number by \(5\), the resulting number will either end in a \(5\) or a zero; using a calculator or spreadsheet to generate a list of the multiples of \(5\) to develop the multiplication and related division facts for fives
• practising calculating and deriving multiplication facts for \(3, 4, 5\) and \(10\), explaining and recalling the patterns in them and using them to derive related division facts
