Multiplying Decimals. A mathematics teacher guidance resource
PDF document

Multiplying Decimals

This resource, from the Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching, illustrates the common mistakes students make when multiplying two decimal values. It suggests that the language used could be adjusted so that the term times is interchanged with of, thus one-tenth of one-tenth is equal to one one-hundredth. Practice of multiplying…

Calculations with Hundreds and Thousands. A mathematics simulation resource
PDF document

Calculations with Hundreds and Thousands

This resource, from the Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching, builds on students' previous knowledge of multiplying by powers of 10 to demonstrate how calculations such as 2000 x 300 can be performed accurately. Follow-up exercises provide practice in the skills learned.

Calculations with Negative Numbers. A mathematics teacher guidance resource
PDF document

Calculations with Negative Numbers

Straightforward logic is used in this resource, from the Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching, to establish the calculation, necessary to move correctly along a number line, when the starting point is at a negative value. Phrases such as owing and debt are used to help students deal with directed number in context. Further…

PDF document

Adding with Negative Numbers

A number line is used in this resource, from the Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching, to illustrate how to solve a calculation involving negative numbers. To help correct misconceptions regarding these, the term taking away is used to represent minus and giving back for plus. Thus -8 +6 is read as taking away 8 and giving…

Dividing Whole Numbers by Fractions. A mathematics teacher guidance resource
PDF document

Dividing Whole Numbers by Fractions

This resource, from the Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching, uses diagrams to illustrate division by a fraction and, to clarify the common misconception identified with this task, prompts students to rethink the statement, divide three by one quarter, as the number of quarters that fit into three. Practice of dividing…
