We got little cards given to us by Mrs Kowalski with random numbers on them. We had to put ourselves into groups. We needed to get into a group of 3 where all 3 numbers made a connection. the connection had to be multiplication and division. 2 multiplication facts and 2 division facts. Then we created a 'making connection' chart and it has 2 multiplication facts on the top and divsion facts on the bottom. We created an array in the middle. We've put some photos below to show you these charts.



By doing this activity lately these are the major things we have learnt so far...
* Factors - which are a list of numbers that you can use to multiply to give you a product.
* Products - the answer to a multiplication fact
* multiplication can always be proved by division because they are the opposite.
* if you know your multiplication facts you know know your division.
