Unit 4, Lesson 8
Relate Quotients to Familiar Products
Grade 3
Preparation
Lesson Purpose
The purpose of this lesson is for students to practice identifying multiplication facts within 100 and to use products they know to determine unknown quotients.
Lesson Narrative
In this lesson, students check in on their progress towards fluent multiplication within 100 and sort their facts into categories. Then students use the multiplication facts they know to generate related division facts. Knowing related facts will help students multiply and divide in future lessons.
- Representation
- MLR8
- Create division equations that share a relationship with known multiplication facts.
- Explain (orally) strategies for calculating the value of multiplication expressions that are not yet known facts.
- Let’s consider the products and quotients we know right away or can find quickly.
Required Materials
Activity 2
Required Preparation

Teacher Reflection Questions
As students worked in their small groups today, whose ideas were heard, valued, and accepted? How can you adjust the group structure tomorrow to ensure each student’s ideas are a part of the collective learning?
