Area model multiplication worksheets are a valuable resource for teaching students how to multiply multi-digit numbers. They provide a visual representation of the multiplication process, which can help students to understand the concept more easily.
The area model is a method of multiplication that uses rectangles to represent the factors and the product. To use the area model, students first draw a rectangle that is the length of one factor and the width of the other factor. They then divide the rectangle into smaller rectangles that represent the individual digits of the factors. The area of each small rectangle is then multiplied together to find the product.
