How confident are you?
Do you feel confident using the grid method?
Research has shown that children who are confident with
the grid method quickly understand complicated algebra in
Year 11
Do not move onto the next method until you are confident
with the grid method, it will help you spot calculation errors
when you use different methods.
Stick with the grid method for as long as you want.
Try these with any multiplication method you prefer
(not using a calculator!)
