Meet the Math Facts: Multiplication & Division

Learning About Multiplication

Multiplication is a way to add the same number over and over again. It’s like having a group of things and counting how many there are altogether. For example, if you have 6 groups of 11 apples, you can use multiplication to find out how many apples you have in total.

Understanding 6 x 11

When we say “six times eleven,” we mean we have 6 groups of 11. If you count all the apples in these groups, you will find out that 6 times 11 equals 66. So, 6 x 11 = 66!

Counting by Elevens

Another fun way to understand this is by counting by elevens. Let’s count together: 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66. When you reach 66, you have counted six elevens!

Practice Makes Perfect

To get better at multiplication, it’s important to practice. You can try counting by elevens or using other numbers to see how multiplication works. Remember, the more you practice, the easier it will become!

Fun Fact

Did you know that multiplication is used in many things we do every day? From cooking to playing games, multiplication helps us solve problems and understand the world around us.

Keep Learning!

Math is like a big puzzle, and multiplication is one of the pieces. Keep practicing and exploring, and soon you’ll be a math whiz!

  • Can you think of a time when you used multiplication in your daily life, like when sharing snacks or playing a game? How did it help you?
  • Imagine you have a magic wand that can multiply things. What would you like to multiply, and why?
  • Let’s say you have 3 groups of your favorite toy, and each group has 4 toys. How many toys do you have in total? Can you draw a picture to show your answer?
  1. Apple Group Activity: Gather some small objects like buttons, coins, or toy blocks. Create 6 groups with 11 items in each group. Count the total number of items together to see how multiplication works in real life. Ask yourself: How many items do you have in total? Can you find another way to count them quickly?

  2. Multiplication Hopscotch: Draw a hopscotch grid outside or on a large piece of paper. Label each square with multiples of 11 (11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66). As you hop from one square to the next, say the number out loud. This will help you remember the sequence of elevens. Can you hop and count all the way to 66 without stopping?

  3. Everyday Multiplication Hunt: Look around your home or classroom for examples of multiplication. For instance, if you see a carton of eggs with 6 rows of 2 eggs, calculate how many eggs there are in total. Write down or draw the examples you find. How many different ways can you find multiplication in your daily life?
