Grouping

In maths at the moment we are learning all about grouping. We even know that there is a tricky word called multiplication. We know that when we multiply we make equal groups and then we put them all together to find the total.

We worked with hoola hoops and bean bags, the care bears, the dinosaurs, little people and cubes to make equal groups using the sorting rings.

P2 then moved on to work with number lines to make equal jumps to work out our totals. Our number lines went up to 100. We had some creatures to help us to do equal jumps. The frogs can jump up in 2s, the rabbits can jump up in 5s and the kangaroos can jump up in 10s. We don’t think multiplication is so hard after all.
