    Times Tables Practise    

Please continue to practise your times tables whilst you are at home.

Click on the 'Times Tables' link at the top of our home class 2 page for songs and ideas of games to play which will help you memorise the multiplication facts. There are also downloadable sheets for each times table.

Stone's Game

 

Draw some circles on the floor in a target style, like in the pictures above.

Choose some numbers (scores) to put in the circles (one number in each colour) the nearer the centre (the bull) the higher the score needs to be.

To play: 

1. Get three stones.

2. Stand outside the circles.

3. Throw each stone, aiming for the highest score.

4. Note the score where the stone lands, you can add the score for each pebble to find your total score. 

5. Take it in turns to play, repeating instructions.

 

Who can get the highest score after five rounds?

You could repeat the game  and change the scores in the circles.

Week 18 Summer 2 Week 8 - 20/7/20

Week 18 - lesson 1 - 20/7/20

Repeated addition and multiplication: Describing arrays

How to use arrays to multiply | Maths - A World Without Maths

What is an array?

An array is a way of representing multiplication facts in a diagram or picture.

It is always made up of rows and columns.

An array is helpful for calculating multiplication statements,

for example, 2 x 4 which can be shown using this array:

  • There are 2 rows of apples and 4 apples in each row.

  • There are 4 columns of apples and 2 apples in each column.

This array shows the multiplication statements 2 x 4 and 4 x 2.

The array has 8 apples in total. This tells us that 2 x 4 and 4 x 2 are both equal to 8.

2 x 4 = 8 and 4 x 2 = 8

 

Look at this array

  • There are 3 rows of sweets and 5 sweets in each row.

  • There are 5 columns of sweets and 3 sweets in each column.

This array shows the multiplication statements 3 x 5 and 5 x 3.

The array has 15 apples in total. This tells us that 3 x 5 and 5 x 3 are both equal to 15.

3 x 5 = 15 and 5 x 3 = 15

 

Remember multiplication is commutative.

4 x 3 is the same amount as 3 x 4.

4 lots of 3 is the same amount as 3 lots of 4.

Here is an array to show 6 x 2

  • Can you see 6 lots of 2?

  • Can you see 2 lots of 6?

  • How many footballs are there in the array?

This array shows that 6 x 2 = 2 x 6.

Activity 1

  1. Can you draw an array to show 3 x 4?

  2. Which other multiplication fact does it show?

  3. Does it help you calculate 4 x 3?

Remember

An array is a diagram to show a multiplication fact. It always has rows and columns and shows that multiplication is commutative.
