Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Multiply a four-digit whole number by a one-digit whole number

  • Use calculated products to make sequential route choices

  • Check multi-digit multiplication when a maze path does not connect

Teaching tips

  • Have learners record their multiplication work beside the maze before choosing a path segment.

  • When a route stops, revisit the most recent product rather than starting the entire maze again.

  • Reserve the completed grid for final checking and ask learners to correct the computation that caused any path difference.

Skills covered

  • Multi-digit multiplication — each route decision depends on a four-digit by one-digit product.

  • Place-value accuracy — partial products must be combined without shifting digit positions.

  • Error analysis — a broken path signals where a product should be recalculated.
