🌱 Multiplication and Division Fact Families ✖️➗

Learning about multiplication and division fact families can be a fun and exciting time for learners! Discovering the relationships between parts of a fact family is fundamental to learning about numbers and operations.

This instructional slide deck will make a great addition to your Maths lessons when learning about fact families. The presentation includes opportunities for your students to demonstrate their understanding of the content with built-in checks for understanding questions.

With this slide deck, your students will learn:

• a definition of fact families
• review addition/subtraction fact families
• visual examples of multiplication/division fact families

Through this activity, students will learn to identify the parts of a multiplication and division operation and how they relate to one another. 

The Importance of Multiplication and Division Fact Families

Learning about multiplication and division fact families helps students understand how numbers work together. Instead of memorising random facts, students see how multiplication and division are connected and how one operation can help solve the other.

This understanding strengthens number sense, builds confidence with mental maths, and prepares students for more advanced concepts like fractions and algebra. When students recognise these relationships, they become flexible, strategic thinkers who can solve problems in multiple ways.
