Breaking Apart our Multiplication

Hi Parents,
I wanted to post a visual for you guys to look at tonight for homework. We are currently working on Multiplication and there are many of us who are struggling with our multiplication facts.
We are moving into multiplying 2 digit by 2 digit. Below is the step by step process for doing an easier "Break Apart" method. I have taught them three different ways (one being the traditional "up and down" that we all learned back in the day).

Please review over this and look at it if you need assistance.
