Use this worksheet to enhance students' abilities in solving double-digit multiplication tasks using area models. It provides a clear example, followed by six of Grandpa Gary's quilting grids that they need to fill in, allowing for ample practice and reinforcement of the concept.
Teaching kids about area model multiplication allows them to visualize and understand the concept of multiplication at a deeper level beyond memorizing times tables. It breaks down the multiplication process into smaller, manageable parts, which can help reduce math anxiety.
