Students then complete a blank 1- 10 multiplication and division table sheet. Based on learning journal work and evaluation of the investigation. Was the student able to identify all the combinations for the chosen numbers. Was the student able to provide sensible word problems. Working with a partner choose 4 numbers to do this to. A maximum of 2 numbers can be prime. 13. 13 x 1 = 13 13 ÷ 1 = 13 Working independently and using a personally selected number write a word problem for each. E.g.
