How to Use This Pack

Nine exit tickets, one for each lesson of a unit on multiplying multi-digit numbers, in lesson order. Each page holds one lesson's ticket four times: copy the page, cut on the dashed lines, and seven copies give a class of 28 a ticket each. A ticket takes a few minutes at the end of the lesson. Students answer two short questions, such as an area model to fill in, a problem in a column or a story with an equation, then circle a face beside the lesson's "I can" line to show how sure they feel.

In the Classroom

Hand out the tickets in the last five minutes of the lesson and collect them at the door. Sort them into three piles (got it, almost, not yet) to plan tomorrow's small groups. The keys show one equation for each story; the factors may come in either order and any letter will do. Ticket 4.7 is for the states that teach 3-digit times 2-digit in 4th grade; skip it if your class does not learn it. The faces show how students feel about the lesson, the answers show what they can do; the two do not always agree. The unit test is a separate pack.

At Home

Use a ticket as a quick check after practicing multiplication together. Ask your child to estimate first, then multiply, and to say whether the answer is close to the estimate.

Tips for Success

  • Think of 7 × 300 as 7 × 3 hundreds
  • Split each factor by place value, then add the parts
  • The second row of 2-digit times 2-digit multiplies by tens, so it ends in 0
  • Round each factor to its greatest place to estimate
  • Check that every answer has its label

Common Core Standards Alignment

This pack supports the following Common Core State Standards for Mathematics:

  • 3.OA.B.5 Use the commutative, associative and distributive properties to multiply and divide, such as finding 7 × 8 from 7 × 5 and 7 × 3.
  • 3.NBT.A.3 Multiply a single-digit number by a multiple of ten from 10 to 90, such as 4 × 70, using place value and properties.
  • 3.MD.C.7c Use tiles or area models to show that splitting a rectangle's side into two parts splits its area into two products (the distributive property).
  • 4.OA.A.2 Multiply or divide to solve story problems that compare amounts (times as many), using drawings and equations, and tell them apart from comparing by adding.
  • 4.NBT.B.5 Multiply numbers up to 9,999 by one-digit numbers, and two-digit by two-digit numbers, with place-value strategies shown in equations, arrays or area models.
  • 5.NBT.A.2 Explain why multiplying or dividing by 10, 100 or 1,000 adds zeros or moves the decimal point, and write powers of 10 with exponents.

4th Grade Multiplication Exit Tickets

Exit tickets for every lesson of a unit on multiplying multi-digit numbers, from multiplying by 10, 100 and 1,000 to 2-digit by 2-digit products. Each page holds one ticket four times to cut apart, with area models, partial products, the standard algorithm, estimates and stories.
