Matemáticas

Esta semana continuaremos trabajando en la Unidad 2: La relación entre la

multiplicación y la división. Ya hemos comenzado a saltar el conteo por 2s,

3s, 4s, 5s y 10s. Tendremos un cuestionario sobre

las tablas de multiplicar esta semana.

vocabulario académico

Factor de:números que podemos multiplicar para obtener el producto.

Producto: larespuesta a un problema de multiplicación.

repetida:Adiciónestá agregando grupos iguales juntos.

Matriz:una disposición de objetos, imágenes o números en columnas y filas.

Propiedad de identidad de la multiplicación: cualquiernúmero que

multiplique por uno me da el mismo número, excepto 0 x 1.

Propiedad cero de la multiplicación: cualquiernúmero que multiplique por

cero me da cero.

Propiedad conmutativa de la multiplicación: cualquiernúmero puede

multiplicarse en cualquier orden.

Propiedad asociativa de la multiplicación:

multiplicaciónindependientemente de cómo se agrupen los números. Un

ejemplo es

8 x 2 = (3 + 5) x 2 = (3 x 2) + (2 x 2) = 16. Esta es una estrategia para

ayudarlo a resolver datos de multiplicación difíciles que quizás no

conozca.
