Missing Multiplicands and Products

Worksheet Description

This worksheet features a set of multiplication circles, also known as multiplication wheels, to help students practice the 5 times table. The central number, 5, is to be multiplied by the numbers in the outer ring, and the products are to be written in the corresponding segments of the inner ring. Some of the products are already filled in, providing a few examples or starting points for students. The exercise involves both completing the partially filled circles and verifying the correctness of the provided products.

The worksheet is designed to teach students the concept of multiplication by the number 5 through a visual and interactive approach. The multiplication wheels offer a different perspective on multiplication by associating it with circular motion, which may help some students understand the concept better. By filling in the missing products, students reinforce their memory of the 5 times table. This method also allows for self-correction, as students can see patterns in the numbers that help them identify any mistakes they may have made.
