Math time - Multiplication.

We have been learning how skip counting, repeated addition 

and multiplication are all linked. It is really important that we use materials when we are learning new ideas in math not matter what stage we are at.

We use counters to make arrays.
We know that if we skip count in 3's, four times we get 12 - 3, 6, 9, 12.

We can also use repeated addition.
3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12

We also know that 4 x 3 = 12 so 4 groups/rows of 3 = 12.

Bubbles, bubbles, everywhere bubbles.

Last week we decided it was bubble time.  A great experience to write about using descriptive writing.  Here are some of our photos.

Everybody blow, watch our bubbles, go, go, go!!!!

Look carefully to see our bubbles!!

Why have our bubbles changed shape???

Keep watching out for our bubble poems.
