What This Standard Means

What Students Need to Do

Students fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers with a standard algorithm. They align place values, record partial products correctly, and combine them accurately.

What Mastery Looks Like

The student solves 3,406 times 27 with an efficient standard algorithm and obtains 91,962. The student checks reasonableness with an estimate.

Common Misconceptions

Students may misalign a second partial product or forget the place-value shift. They may make basic-fact errors and accept an unreasonable product.

How to Assess It

Ask students to calculate 2,718 times 34 with a standard algorithm and use rounding to check the product's size.

Lesson moves

Ways to Teach It

  1. Use a place-value chart beside the standard algorithm to track each partial product's position.

  2. Ask students to explain why the tens-row partial product begins one place left.

  3. Play algorithm error hunt with misaligned partial products, omitted regrouping, and incorrect sums.

  4. Calculate a large total from equal quantities in many boxes and check it with an estimate.
