Malola, Mayamiko; Symons, Duncan; Stephens, Max
Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, v25 n2 p31-36 2020
In this article, the authors argue that teachers need to possess appropriate understanding and diverse pedagogies to successfully move learners from additive to multiplicative thinking. Herein, they offer five pedagogical strategies that teachers can use to help students make this transition. Some of the challenges of learning multiplicative thinking are also discussed.
