Worked Example – What pet should I get
🔢Maths🔢 – 30 minutes
Learning Intention: We are learning to understand multiplication as equal groups, arrays, repeated addition and skip counting.
Success Criteria – I can:
- Understand how to ‘read’ a multiplication sum. (3 x 4 = 12, “3 groups of 4 is 12”)
- Make equal groups or arrays to match a multiplication sum.
- Write the repeated addition sum to match the sum.
- Skip count to work out the answer.
- Understand that the numbers in a multiplication sum can be ‘swapped over’ ( eg:3 x 4 = 4 x 3) and use ‘commutative property’ to help me work out the answer. (Know one, know the other)
Warm up – Multiplication: Give me 5
Please see the example below for how to fill out the ‘Give me 5’ sheet:
Grade 1: Give me 5
Use two dice if you have some or choose 2 numbers that are 6 and under (but not 0 or 1). Use the image below as a guide to draw up 4 boxes to record your work and remember to write the equation in the middle of the page. (Put it in a plastic pocket so you can use it over and over). Practise 2 equations.
Grade 2: Give me 5
Use two dice if you have some or choose 2 numbers to 10 (but not 0 or 1). Use the image below as a guide to draw up 4 boxes to record your work and remember to write the equation in the middle of the page. (Put it in a plastic pocket so you can use it over and over). Practise 2 equations.
