Maths Time with Mrs Smith

We have been learning about multiplication arrays in Maths this term.  

James is investigating a square number – 6x6 = 36

Justine and Sachi are making an array for the number 24.  They have made 8 groups of 3

or 3+3+3+3+3+3+3+3 =24 or 8 x 3 = 24

Todd is making an array with 36 counters.  He has made 9 groups of 4 or 4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4= 36

or 9x4 = 36

Seb has made a square number from 36.  He has shown 6+6+6+6+6+6 = 36 or 6x6=36
