Start by discussing the importance of money and its role in everyday transactions. Review the different denominations of money, ensuring students can identify and differentiate between them. Explain that multiplying money is similar to buying several items that cost the same amount, and it helps us find out the total cost. Use relatable examples, such as buying multiple pieces of candy or several notebooks, to illustrate how multiplication of money works in real-life scenarios. Encourage students to think of other situations where they might need to multiply money.
Multiplying Money: Basic Multiplication Review – Recap multiplication facts – Review times tables up to 10×10 – Multiplication in daily life – Discuss how we use multiplication for budgeting, shopping – Practice with simple problems – Solve problems like 5 x $2.00 – Understand money multiplication – Apply multiplication to calculate total costs | Begin with a quick review of multiplication facts to ensure students are comfortable with basic multiplication.

Multiplying Whole Numbers with Money – Steps to multiply money by whole numbers – Write the money amount, then multiply by the number of items. – Example: Total cost of items – If one item costs $2, what’s the cost of 5? Multiply 2 by 5 to get $10. – Practice: Cost of 4 apples – One apple is $0.50, so 4 apples cost 4 times $0.50, which equals $2. | This slide introduces the concept of multiplying whole numbers with money, a practical skill for everyday life. Start by explaining the steps: write down the money amount and multiply it by the number of items. Use an example like calculating the total cost of multiple items to illustrate the concept. For instance, if one item costs $2, and you buy 5 of them, you multiply 2 by 5 to get $10. Then, present a practice problem to the class: if one apple costs $0.50, how much would 4 apples cost? Walk through the multiplication of $0.50 by 4 to show that the total cost is $2. Encourage students to solve it on their own first before discussing as a class.
Multiplying Decimals with Money – Decimals represent cents in money – Steps to multiply by whole numbers – Line up the numbers, ignore the decimal, multiply, then place the decimal back – Example: Cost of 3.5 pounds of bananas – 3.5 pounds at $0.99/pound: Multiply 3.5 by 99 to find the total cost – Practice with real-life scenarios – Use examples like buying fruit or school supplies to understand practical applications | This slide introduces the concept of multiplying decimals in the context of money, which is a practical skill for students. Begin by explaining that in money, decimals are used to represent cents, with one decimal place for dimes and two for cents. Walk through the steps of multiplying a decimal by a whole number, emphasizing the importance of ignoring the decimal during multiplication and then placing it correctly in the answer. Use the example of buying bananas to show how to calculate the total cost, and encourage students to practice with similar real-life scenarios to reinforce the concept.
