How to teach this

Multiply by the ones, then by the tens shifted one place, and add the partial products. Longer multiplicands make alignment especially important; graph paper can keep every place in its column.

Watch for: Kids multiply each digit once and ignore place value. The 4 in 43 is forty, so its partial product needs the zero. Kids skip regrouping in multiplication because it looks like an addition-only move. Carries happen here too, above the next column.

Common questions about 5th grade multi-digit multiplication

Why do the problems use different lengths?
The same place-value algorithm should work for two-, three-, and four-digit multiplicands. Mixing lengths checks the method instead of one memorized layout.
