Area multiplication is based on rectangles. If one factor is
zero, then the number sentence doesn’t describe a rectangle, it describes a line segment, and
the product (the “area”) is zero.

Understanding the Standard: “The distributive property states that multiplying a sum by a number gives the same result as multiplying each addend by the number and then adding the products (e.g., 3(4 + 5) = 3 x 4 + 3 x 5, 5 x (3 + 7) = (5 x 3) + (5 x 7); or (2 x 3) + (2 x 5) = 2 x (3 + 5).”
Essential Knowledge & Skills: • “Investigate and recognize the distributive property of whole numbers, limited to multiplication over addition, using diagrams and manipulatives.”
• “Investigate and recognize an equation that represents the distributive property, when given several whole number equations, limited to multiplication over addition.”

Illustrates the inherent connections between multiplication and division:• Factors, divisors, and quotients are represented by the lengths of the rectangle’s sides.• Products and dividends are represented by the area of the rectangle.
Versatile:• Can be used with whole numbers and decimals (through hundredths).• Rotating the rectangle illustrates commutative property.• Forms the basis for future modeling: distributive property; factoring with Algebra Tiles; and Completing the Square to solve quadratic equations.

Multiplication and division are inverse relations
One operation undoes the other
Division by a number yields the same result as multiplication by its reciprocal (inverse). For example:

““I thought times makes it bigger...”I thought times makes it bigger...”““I thought times makes it bigger...”I thought times makes it bigger...”
When moving beyond whole numbers to situations involving fractions and mixed numbers as factors, divisors, and dividends, students can easily become confused. Helping them match problems to everyday situations can help them better understand what it means to multiply and divide with fractions. However, repeated addition and array meanings of multiplication, as well as a divvy up meaning of division, no longer make as much sense as they did when describing whole number operations.
Using a Groups-Of interpretation of multiplication and a Measure Out interpretation of division can help:

Essential Knowledge & Skills: • Identify and draw a number line that demonstrates the concept of mean as balance point for a set of data.
Understanding the Standard: “Mean can be defined as the point on a number line where the data distribution is balanced. This means that the sum of the distances from the mean of allthe points above the mean is equal to the sum of the distances of all the data points below the mean.”

Key Points for 2009 5.16 & 6.15:
Students still need to be able to calculate the mean by summing up and dividing, but they also need to understand:
- why it’s calculated this way (“fair share”);
- how the mean compares to the median and the mode for describing the center of a data set; and
- when each measure of center might be used to represent a data set.
Fall 2010
Mean:Mean:Fair Share & Balance PointFair Share & Balance Point
Mean:Mean:Fair Share & Balance PointFair Share & Balance Point
101
“Students need to understand that the mean ‘evens out’ or ‘balances’ a set of data and that the median identifies the ‘middle’ of a data set. They should compare the utility of the mean and the median as measures of center for different data sets. …students often fail to apprehend many subtle aspects of the mean as a measure of center. Thus, the teacher has an important role in providing experiences that help students construct a solid understanding of the mean and its relation to other measures of center.”
