Multiplying 2-Digit by 1-Digit Numbers

Your third grade students will practice basic multiplication skills in this interactive math activity from iKnowIt.com. Students will strengthen their multiplication skills as they practice multiplying 2-digit numbers by 1-digit numbers. Here are several learning objectives of this third grade math activity:

• Solve vertical multiplication problems containing one 2-digit number and one 1-digit number.
• Solve horizontal multiplication problems containing one 2-digit number and one 1-digit number.
• Solve multiplication word problems containing one 2-digit number and one 1-digit number.

When students get an answer wrong, a detailed explanation page will show them, step-by-step, how to multiply to obtain the correct product. In this manner, children will move through the math activity learning from previous mistakes.
