Multiplication: Booklet 3
Multiplication: Booklet 3 – Properties and Factoring from Pattern Press is a hands-on math curriculum resource designed to help students understand multiplication properties, factoring, divisibility, and number relationships through discovery-based learning and visual mathematical exploration.
This booklet set includes a 53-page Parent/Teacher Guide and a 49-page Student Workbook that guide students beyond basic multiplication facts into deeper mathematical structure and reasoning. Through number lines, area models, factoring activities, and pattern investigation, students begin to see how multiplication concepts connect to algebraic thinking and problem solving.
Rather than memorizing isolated rules, learners are encouraged to explore mathematical properties through hands-on activities and guided discovery. Students investigate how numbers can be grouped, broken apart, and reorganized while developing a flexible understanding of multiplication structure and factors.
The Parent/Teacher Guide includes teaching instructions, lesson support, sample dialogues, games, and the Answer Key. The Student Workbook includes worksheets and practice pages that reinforce conceptual understanding through active learning and exploration.
