**Session Title** **Two-digit multiplications**
Objective Students will be able to multiply two-digit numbers
Concept To understand how to multiply two-digit numbers.
Material Required 1. Board and chalk 2. Paper and pencils 3. Multiplication worksheets. 4. Chart paper for group work 5. Digital timer (optional) 6. Two-Digit Multiplication worksheet
Methodology Learning through activity.
Session Duration 90 Minutes
### Introduction Activity (20 minutes) **Direct Instruction:** - Introduce the concept of two-digit multiplication by explaining that we are multiplying numbers that are greater than 9. - Write a simple two-digit multiplication problem on the board (e.g., 24 × 13). - Break down the multiplication into smaller, manageable steps. For example: - Multiply the ones digit (4 × 3 = 12, carry the 1). - Multiply the tens digit (20 × 3 = 60). - Repeat with the tens digit of the second number (4 × 10 = 40). - Add all the partial products together. ![](https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfSzntDkiCSMLKjEnQ2F32dIq5kBuin0-OMJVpzpdckd4PmtehLu1WPlUxFAkRCfA67nXfvkT4xMVFoN59DXSXen3J8f4sGnfOMv_sKJXxbMvaxVBH69qveLj7yDynzRmrlBcFnBF5UvV_wt8KV53w?key=wt3oi2iOx8ayK_ba__dz73JB) ### Main Activity (65 minutes) **Multiplication Relay Race (30 minutes)** - Divide students into small groups (3-4 students per group). Each group will work together on a set of two-digit multiplication problems in a relay-style format. - One student starts the relay by solving the first part of a multiplication problem (e.g., multiplying the ones place). - The next student solves the next part (e.g., multiplying the tens place). - The final student solves the last step (adding the partial products together). - After each step, students pass the "math baton" (e.g., a pencil or a marker) to the next teammate. - ![](https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfOkdupnIr14a4GwG57iNkz3PyWNtt-_EI6C33NRDvlVEpAQtWT9F-KsCihLovdAjc_s3H773va_9ewlxvJFM_fBbD4wRJiNl928Cz6EJB1wq-FQZt8qim7o_6ysOnzSLHketVhEjkPvKNFbDvF8V8?key=wt3oi2iOx8ayK_ba__dz73JB) **Independent Practice (20 minutes)** Provide each student with a worksheet containing a set of two-digit multiplication problems. Encourage them to try the traditional method of multiplication. 1. 41×12 2. 63×8 3. 57×16 4. 16×11 ### Review Questions (15 minutes) - Ask students to share one strategy that helped them solve the multiplication problems today. This reinforces learning and allows students to help one another. - Review key concepts from the lesson. ### Follow up Tasks(5 minutes) 1. 23×12 2. 50×8 3. 16×76 ### Expected Learning Outcome: **Knowledge building:** - Understand the concept how multiplying two-digit numbers. **Skill Building:** - Self awareness - Self management - Social awareness - Critical thinking - Relationship skills **Resources** [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PMM-wWqAZrR5Zl4FCGflSkPIZVmno2yI/view?usp=drivesdk](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PMM-wWqAZrR5Zl4FCGflSkPIZVmno2yI/view?usp=drivesdk)
