This Halfterm in Year 4 we showed fantastic Resourcefulness using counters to explore arrays and multiplication. Working with reciprocity in pairs, the children practiced solving complex equations like 7 x 3 being Reflective and splitting them into smaller groups, like 5 x 3 add 2 x 3 This smart strategy, used prior knowledge, and helped build strong Resilience for tackling any multiplication problem they face.
"I really like finding the links between my tables. My teacher showed me that if I double the 3 times table, I get 6, and if I treble it, I get 9." Munsha, WIillow
"My favorite math trick is checking my 9 times table. I noticed that if you add the two factors of the answer together, they always equal 9." - Kylie, Maple
