Teaching Table
Set out your lesson
Practise the bounded task in Multiplication and Division Word Problems; see exact limits before inferring broader coverage.
Can multiply and divide small whole numbers; attend to the unit in each question.
Exact directed source edges retained; earlier authorship is not learner attainment.
These supplied stage cards
Scrap paper and pencil; oral/pointing response where appropriate
Read readiness and decide on support without treating prerequisite authoring as learner readiness.
Open Show first and explain its model.
Use Guided Try with support and its separate adult key.
Close Show and guided keys before Try, unless this Try is explicitly supported.
Reflect on an actual attempt, including help used.
Use the supplied screen cards; copying the exact task to paper is optional, not required.
Use only invented scenarios and optional anonymous local notes. Do not request names, photos, family finances, medical data, accounts or uploads. Stop uncomfortable physical activity.

Use the complete materials on screen or print only the current sheet. Keep adult guidance out of learner view. Retain an earlier model only when the current step supplies it as context.
Teaching limits and safe use
These are finite task opportunities, not proof of mastery. Record what was attempted and what support was used.
Three finite equal-group/array contexts within 100; no remainders or mixed unknown positions.
Use only invented scenarios and optional anonymous local notes. Do not request names, photos, family finances, medical data, accounts or uploads. Stop uncomfortable physical activity.

Check understanding
- Solve an equal-groups word problem using multiplication
- Solve a measurement division problem (e.g. 'How many 4-cm pieces from a 28-cm ribbon?')
- Solve an array/area word problem using multiplication
“If you tell your child 'there are 7 boxes with 9 pencils in each — how many pencils?', can they recognise it as a multiplication problem and solve it correctly?”
