Arrays!

Date: 19th Jun 2022 @ 5:24pm

This week in our maths lessons we have been learning about arrays and how they can help us with multiplication. An array is a set of objects or pictures that are arranged into rows and columns. We made arrays using counters and then had a go at drawing arrays. 

At the end of the week children requested the station carousel of activities so we consolidated our learning doing just that! Station 1 activity was read the statement and make the array and station 2 activity was read the statement and draw the arrays. Finally station 3 activity children had to read the problems and decide if they were going to draw or make the arrays. 

By the end of the week, children were becoming much more confident at understanding and using arrays. They will continue to use these when they get into Year 2!
