Multiplying 2-Digit by 1-Digit Numbers

Searching for a fun, educational online math activity to help your students practice basic multiplication skills? Try out this fun math lesson from I Know It featuring multiplication with 2-digit and 1-digit numbers. This online math game is presented at a fourth-grade difficulty level. Your students will gain proficiency in basic multiplication skills in this straightforward, yet challenging math lesson.

Students will answer a variety of vertical multiplication problems, horizontal multiplication problems, and multiplication word problems in this fourth-grade math game. Students may be asked to find the product of 14 and 6, 29 and 2, or 78 and 5. Or they may be given a word problem like this one: "The bookshelf in Mrs. Kinderman's classroom has three shelves. If she can fit 36 chapter books on each shelf, how many books are on the bookshelf in all?" If students need a little extra help solving a multiplication problem, they can click on the hint button, which will show the first step to solving the multiplication problem to help kids get started. When students answer a question incorrectly, a detailed explanation page will show the correct answer with an easy-to-follow explanation, helping children to learn from their mistakes as they move through the lesson.

In this fourth-grade multiplication activity, as well as all math lessons on the I Know It website, several handy features help students make the most of their math practice session. A progress-tracker in the upper-right corner of the practice screen lets students see how many questions they have answered so far in the lesson, while a score-tracker beneath that shows them how many points they have earned for right answers. A speaker icon indicates the read-aloud feature; students can click this button to have the question read out loud to them in a clear voice. (This is a great option for ESL/ELL students and for students who prefer auditory learning.) Each tool in our online math lessons is designed with your elementary students' success in mind!
