MATHEMATICS

2 times tables


In class we've also been learning about the 2 times tables and gaining a better understanding through using materials.  Sometimes when we hear the words "times tables" we think it's hard but we have been learning other words which makes it easier, like "lots of" and "groups of".  Also we found out that if we know our doubles (for example: 4 + 4) then we actually know our 2 times tables (for example: 4 + 4 = 8, so 2 lots of 4 equals 8 too). 


showing 2 x 12 = 24 (2 groups of 12 is 24)

showing 2 x 5 = 10 (2 lots of 5 is 10)

showing 2 x 1 = 2 (2 groups of 1 is 2)

  1. Awesome Room 16! You're becoming clever mathematicians! Room 18 might need to take some lessons with you!
