The 3rd graders are so excited that we've started multiplication! We've worked on understanding what multiplication is and how it works. They have used manipulatives to illustrate problems, and they have also created arrays to clearly show the problem. We have practiced 0's, 1's, 2's, 5's, and 10's to get our feet wet. We'll continue with those after Christmas break, and we will practice, practice, practice. Watch for a multiplication packet to start coming home in January.
