We are starting a unit on multiplication and division in the next few days. These are foundational skills that must be mastered in order to do higher level math. The basis for multiplication starts off in grade 1 and 2 when we begin to skip count with students on the 100 chart. Multiplication is in essence repeated addition. We will be looking at the link between addition and multiplication first and then we will move on to using arrays for multiplication. I will talk more about arrays in the next few days. Below you will see the anchor chart that we will go over in class with the students. The anchor charts stay in the class and are there as a support for the students to use whenever they need a reminder. I encourage to practice with your child every chance you get.
