Multiplication as ‘Groups of’ (2)
EASYTEACHING.NET
Overview:
A worksheet designed to help students link the concept of 'groups of' to multiplication. Students draw groups of objects and write the corresponding multiplication equations. Designed for students in years 2 and 3.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand multiplication as 'groups of' by drawing models and writing equations.
- Strengthen the connection between visual representations and multiplication equations.
- Reinforce multiplication skills through real-world applications of 'groups of'.
How the Activity Works:
Students are given prompts to draw specific numbers of objects in groups. For example, they may be asked to "draw 5 groups of 2 stars," which means drawing 2 stars in each of 5 groups. After completing the drawing, students will write the corresponding multiplication equation, such as 5x2 = 10. This activity helps students connect the concept of 'groups of' to the multiplication symbol, reinforcing their understanding of multiplication.
