The area model and partial products link back to the student's knowledge of place value. It makes it easier for them to keep track of all the numbers they are adding together to get the product. The same goes for the distributive property. When students have a base knowledge of place value, they can easily decompose one of the numbers in a multiplication problem.

They all shows how to multiple using different techniques. Many of the techniques have the numbers broken down into smaller ones to make it easier to multiple then add up those numbers.

# data[].attributes.body
The Area model is similar to the partial product and distributive property because they break down numbers into smaller ones. They Separate tens and ones and solve.

Multiplication is involved with every model.  They just create unique visuals that will help students see the breakdown of the problem and you can reach the same result.

In life there are many different ways to do something that create the same result. Following this idea are the mathematical concepts that build upon each other. In learning, many students are at different levels of progression each building off the foundation principles of addition and subtraction...

I notice that students will approach the problem with the property or model they see as best or easiest for them to conceptualize. I realize the models break up different parts of the problem, but you still have to multiply...

The area model, partial products method, and distributive property all allow the numbers being multiplied to be broken down into smaller, potentially more manageable chunks. The open area model is essentially a visualization of the partial products method, while the distributive property explains why the numbers can be split up in those models.

OGAP focuses on how students learn math concepts, errors made, and pre/misconceptions.

Partial products, area model, and distributive property breakdown multiplying in different ways. I think it is a good that there are different ways to the same answer because everyone thinks differently. The traditional way of multiplying can be confusing for some students, so having multiple ways to reach the answer is super cool! I’ve never seen some of these methods and it blew my mind haha

# data[].attributes.body
I notice that there is multiplication involved and the numbers are broken down. Once the numbers are broken down, students can then add the numbers up to find the answer.

# data[].attributes.body
The area model is a way of visualizing the math taking place when one uses the partial products method or the distributive property. The processes is identical in each one, the difference is the way in which the numbers are laid out.

# data[].attributes.body
All are different, equally relevant and correct ways of multiplying two large numbers. In order from area model to partial products to distributive property, they show a student's development to the point where they can think more abstractly about the multiplication algorithm. My main takeaway is that the best way to teach multiplication is to ensure that the student develops conceptual knowledge before they try to use the algorithms.

All different strategies are used to analyzing a problem and arriving at the same conclusion. Area model analyzes/solves problems by using area geometrical shapes (more visual), partial demonstrates by utilizing order or process (numbers)/ traditional method, while solving problems left to right.

# data[].attributes.body
Each strategy describes an approach for multiplying or dividing numbers. The best strategy to use is dependent on the context of the problem. Area models are used to find area, and in that way, this strategy utilizes a visual model; partial products is algorithmic; the distributive property breaks down numbers according to place value.

# data[].attributes.body
I notice that they are several strategies for students to interact with different problems and problem structures. They gain more knowledge and it helps them build their early traditional strategy to keep them moving forward with math.

# data[].attributes.body
Each process breaks down the multiplication problem into smaller, more manageable multiplication and addition problems. It seems like students can use their foundational knowledge to solve more complex problems by using these models.

# data[].attributes.body
each breaks down the problem into smaller chunks for better comprehension.

# data[].attributes.body
shows a progression of how a student can navigate/think of the problem and builds upon those early strategies to form multiplicative strategies later on in the learning process.

# data[].attributes.body
There's a lot of grouping that students will do over time and as they start to move forward in math the grouping can become less pictorial and more procedural.

# data[].attributes.body
They all are different ways of approaching a problem. They are all ways to solve a multiplication problem. Take away is that there is no one way to solve a problem, it's about what method you prefer and what works best for you.

Each practice allows students to break down the problem into easily recognizable problems/solutions. It allows them to easily visualize the problem.

# data[].attributes.body
All of the practices are similar because they break down bigger numbers in multiplication and division problems to solve them easier. I noticed that each method uses similar strategies when simplifying the question but use different designs (boxes, traditional method, etc.)

# data[].attributes.body
all different ways of breaking down the original problem into something easier to digest. All are valid mathematical solutions to a given problem utilizing a legitimate formula/concept vs strategies for solving that are lower on the chart (additive and transitional vs multiplicative)

# data[].attributes.body
Each model allows the student to approach the equation with the knowledge that they have. They are able to break the problem down into smaller equations that they are familiar with. It is also visual to them.
