In Turkey Investigations, your workshop participants will observe third graders as they begin to construct ideas about multiplication. Exploring contexts of weights and measures over three days, the children invent strategies such as repeated addition on the number line, doubling and halving, and using ratio tables. Teachers will discover what a valuable tool real-life contexts are for building a solid foundation in multiplication.
