This week in primary 2/3 we were introduced to arrays to help us solve multiplication problems. We were learning to first describe and talk about an array and then got a chance to work with a partner to complete some array challenges both outside and inside in the classroom. We spoke about the importance of making sure that each column had the same number and that each row should have the same number. We learnt that this meant that they would be equal.

Amazing Arrays in P3
This week in primary 3 we have been continuing to learn about multiplication. We have been exploring different strategies to help us solve multiplication sums. This week we have been learning about arrays and feel confident in using these as a strategy for any multiplication sum. We enjoyed creating arrays using play-doh and whiteboards. We even took our learning outside and used natural materials to create arrays.
