Maths Strategies



Our current maths focus is multiplication and division.
At our initial class discussion many of us were a little nervous about learning all of our times tables as we saw it to be such a huge task to do.
So we started talking about different rules and tricks we can do to make it easier for us, for example when you multiply something by 0 it always equals 0.
We then discovered that it's not that scary if we remember the tips and tricks.
Here's a sheet to help us
.

We then had a go at the challenge below. Try it yourself, how many combinations can you do??

Choose 3 numbers below and show how they are related by multiplication or division

e.g. 60 x 3 = 180
