ClassX Video Lessons Youtube Channel Preschool Prep Company Practice Multiplying by 2’s! | Meet the Math Drills – Multiplication
Multiplying by 2 is like adding the same number twice. It’s a fun way to count things quickly! Let’s see how it works with some examples.
Imagine you have 2 cups. Each cup has 1 toothbrush. How many toothbrushes do you have in total? Let’s find out:
So, there are 2 toothbrushes!
Now, think about corn. Each corn stalk has 2 ears of corn. If you have 2 stalks, how many ears of corn do you have?
That’s 4 ears of corn!
Let’s look at cacti. Each cactus has 10 thorns. If you have 2 cacti, how many thorns are there altogether?
Wow, that’s 20 thorns!
Here are some more multiplication facts with 2:
Practice these and you’ll become a multiplication master in no time!
Multiplying by 2 is a great way to start learning multiplication. Keep practicing, and you’ll get better and faster. Remember, math can be fun and exciting!
For more fun learning, keep exploring and practicing with different numbers. Enjoy your math adventures!
Double the Objects: Find some small objects around your house, like toy cars, blocks, or crayons. Count out 5 of them. Now, double the number by adding the same amount again. How many do you have now? Try this with different numbers of objects and see how quickly you can double them!
Draw and Multiply: Draw a picture of a garden with 2 rows of flowers. Each row should have 3 flowers. How many flowers are there in total? Use multiplication to find out: 2 * 3 = 6. Try drawing different numbers of rows and flowers, and use multiplication to find the total each time.
Multiplication Hunt: Go on a multiplication hunt around your home or classroom. Look for things that come in pairs, like shoes, socks, or gloves. Count how many pairs you find and use multiplication to find out how many individual items there are in total. For example, if you find 4 pairs of shoes, calculate 2 * 4 = 8 shoes.
