Multiplication and Area
Module 4: Lesson 10
Objective: Apply the distributive property as a
strategy to find the total area of a large rectangle
by adding two products.
Group Counting (3 minutes)
Count forward and backward, occasionally changing
the direction of the count.
• Sixes to 60
• Sevens to 70
• Eights to 80
• Nines to 90
Find the Unknown Factor
(5 Minutes)
• Write 4 Ɨ = 12.) Fill in the unknown factor to
make a true number sentence.
• Continue with the following possible sequence:
6 Ɨ = 12, 2 Ɨ = 12, and 3 Ɨ = 12.
• (Write 8 Ɨ = 24.) Fill in the unknown factor to
make a true number sentence.
Application Problem
(5 minutes)
Sonya folds a 6 by 6 square inch piece of paper
into 4 equal parts, shown below. What is the
area of 1 of the parts?
Application Problem
Concept Development
(37 minutes)
Students start with the tiling template in their
personal white boards.
• (Project the tiling template.) There are 3 rectangles
we are going to focus on: the large rectangle (trace
the outside of the large rectangle with your finger),
the shaded rectangle (trace the shaded rectangle),
and the unshaded rectangle (trace the unshaded
rectangle).
• Use square-centimeter tiles to find the area of the
large rectangle. (Allow students time to work.) What
is the area of the large rectangle?
Concept Development
(37 minutes)
• Use square-centimeter tiles to find the side lengths of
the shaded rectangle. (Allow students time to work.)
What are the side lengths?
• Label the side lengths. (Allow students time to label
the side lengths.) What multiplication expression can
you use to find the area of the shaded rectangle?
• Write that expression next to the shaded rectangle.
What side length do we already know for the
unshaded rectangle?
• Use square-centimeter tiles to find the other side
length of the unshaded rectangle. (Allow students
time to work.) What is the other side length?
Concept Development
• Label the side length. What multiplication expression
can you use to find the area of the unshaded
rectangle?
• Write that expression next to the unshaded rectangle.
(Allow students time to write expression.) How can
we use these two expressions to help us find the area
of the large rectangle?
• Write an expression on your board to show this.
• Read your expression to a partner, and then find its
value. (Allow students time to solve.) What is the area
of the large rectangle?
Concept Development
• Is that the answer you got when you tiled the large
rectangle?
• Write the value of the length of the large rectangle as
an addition expression.
• What will you multiply by to find the area?
• Write that in your expression. Where should we put
parentheses?
• Add the parentheses to your expression. What is 5 +
3?
• What is the new expression?
Concept Development
• What is the area?
• Is that the same answer we just got?
• How are these three expressions related?
Discuss with a partner how the
large rectangle on your board
also shows the break apart and
distribute strategy
Concept Development
Repeat the process with the following possible
suggestions, providing pictures of rectangles with grid
lines:
• We broke apart the 18 by 9 rectangle into two 9 by 9
rectangles. What other ways could we break apart
this rectangle? Explain to a partner the process you
use to decide how to break apart a side length.
