LI: to learn the times tables

Multiplication is an easier way to count the same number many times. For example: 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 +3 + 3 + 3 +3  is counting three 8 times so 8 x 3 = 24.

These two slides below show the 3 and 6 times tables.

Tangrams

Today I learnt how to make tangrams, I rearranged the pieces to make animal shapes.

First I made a square piece of paper because tangrams are made from a big square. Then I folded the square into various shapes and cut them out. Lastly I tried to make different animal shapes from the tangram pieces.

The tangrams were hard and we had to put the pieces back together so it makes a square.
