Worksheet Description

This worksheet is another tool in a series aimed at teaching the ten times table, using visual representations of the number ten. Arrays of small squares are grouped in sets of ten to visually represent the numbers to be multiplied, providing a clear, countable representation of the quantity. Students are instructed to complete the multiplication by determining how many groups of ten are presented and then writing the correct answer in the space provided. The use of visual groupings makes abstract multiplication concepts more tangible and accessible for learners.

The worksheet’s objective is to teach students to multiply by ten using visual aids. By counting the groups of ten squares, students learn to connect the visual quantity with the numerical expression of multiplication. This exercise reinforces the concept of multiplication as repeated addition and helps to build an intuitive understanding of number relationships. It is particularly beneficial for visual learners, as it provides a graphic illustration of what it means to multiply a number by ten.
