This comprehensive unit makes it easy to teach both multiplicative comparison and division comparison concepts through visual models, equations, and word problems.
Mini-Lesson:
Students are introduced to multiplicative comparisons through guided examples and visual charts. This ready-to-use notebook page helps students see how to interpret and write equations like 24 = 4 × 6 as “24 is 4 times as many as 6.”
Worksheets (10 total):
Students practice:
Writing multiplication and division comparison equations
Solving word problems that involve “times as many” statements
Matching visual models to equations
Comparing quantities using both multiplication and division
Each worksheet is differentiated to meet varying skill levels and keep students challenged.
Emoji Math Sort:
Students decide whether each multiplicative comparison statement is correct by adding a smile emoji for correct answers or a frown emoji for incorrect ones — a quick, low-prep activity for centers or warm-ups.
Math Riddles:
Students act as “math detectives” as they solve 10 riddles that require reading short paragraphs and using multiplicative comparison clues to complete charts. Perfect for partner work or early finishers!
Cut and Glue Activity:
Students match pumpkins to their correct positions in the pumpkin patch by solving multiplicative comparison statements. A great visual activity for reinforcing multiplication and division relationships.
Set up task cards around the classroom for students to solve. Each correct answer earns a spot in the class “bucket,” and names are drawn at the end for small prizes. Perfect for review days and active learning.
Each student builds their own campsite, earning one item each time they solve a comparison problem correctly. Chance cards add excitement and unpredictability. The first player to complete their campsite wins!
Students race in teams to line up comparison cards in the correct order. Each round reinforces interpreting “times as many” statements while keeping competition friendly and engaging.
All games include color and black-and-white versions to fit your classroom needs.
