This week we have been getting even more confident with our 2, 5 and 10 times tables. The children are now more able to draw pictures to represent multiplications and some children are really quick at recalling their times tables facts. Next week we are going to link our multiplication facts to division, so if we know that 2x5 is 10 we also know how many 5s make 10. Turning multiplication facts around is a good way of ensuring your child really understands the concept of multiplication.Try these:
How many 2s in 8?
How many 5s in 30?
How many 10s in 90?
Try similar questions at home and draw pictures to show the calculations. For this picture you could ask: How many 5s in 15?
