Multiplication: The Grid Method — Year 4 Maths

A ready-to-teach PowerPoint scaffold for a one-hour Year 4 maths lesson on the grid (box) method for multiplication. Pupils revisit what multiplication means, then learn to partition a two-digit number into tens and ones, draw and fill a grid, and add the parts to reach the answer, using a fully worked example of 23 x 4 = 92. It includes a ‘Your Turn’ guided calculation and a word-problem challenge. It
covers the Year 4 short-multiplication objective, building confidence with bigger numbers step by step.
