National Curriculum Objectives

Mathematics Year 4: (4C6a) Recall multiplication and division facts for multiplication tables up to 12 × 12

Mathematics Year 4: (4C6b) Use place value, known and derived facts to multiply and divide mentally, including: multiplying by 0 and 1; dividing by 1; multiplying together three numbers

Mathematics Year 4: (4C6c) Recognise and use factor pairs and commutativity in mental calculations

Mathematics Year 4: (4C8) Solve problems involving multiplying and adding, including using the distributive law to multiply two digit numbers by one digit, integer scaling problems and harder correspondence problems such as n objects are connected to m objects

Differentiation:

Varied Fluency
Developing Questions to support using partitioning and addition to efficiently multiply 2-digit numbers using all 12 times tables; where the 2-digit numbers can be partitioned into known facts up to 12x. Times table support and/or scaffolding provided.
Expected Questions to support using factors, partitioning, addition and subtraction to efficiently multiply 2-digit numbers using all 12 times tables. Some scaffolding provided.
Greater Depth Questions to support using factors, partitioning, addition and subtraction, doubling and halving to efficiently multiply 2-digit numbers by using all 12 times tables; using known facts up to 12x.

Reasoning and Problem Solving
Questions 1, 4 and 7 (Reasoning)
Developing Decide whether or not a calculation has been solved correctly. Calculation uses partitioning and addition and known facts up to 12x.
Expected Decide whether or not a calculation has been solved efficiently. Calculation uses partitioning, addition and subtraction, factor pairs and known facts up to 12x.
Greater Depth Decide whether or not a calculation has been solved efficiently. Calculation uses doubling, halving and known facts up to 12x.

Questions 2, 5 and 8 (Problem Solving)
Developing Create a 2-digit multiplied by 1-digit calculation and solve it using an efficient method. Two forms of scaffolding provided.
Expected Create a 2-digit multiplied by 1-digit calculation and solve it using an efficient method. One form of scaffolding provided.
Greater Depth Create a 3-digit multiplied by 1-digit calculation and solve it using an efficient method.

Questions 3, 6 and 9 (Reasoning)
Developing Solve a given calculation in an inefficient way followed by a more efficient way. Times table support provided.
Expected Solve a given calculation in an inefficient way followed by a more efficient way.
Greater Depth Solve a given calculation using factor pairs, or doubling and halving. Identify a more efficient method.
