The document discusses arranging groups of shapes like circles, squares, hearts and stars into equal rows or arrays and writing number sentences to represent the arrangements. It provides examples of arranging groups of 12 circles, 20 circles, 14 squares, 15 hearts and 9 stars into arrays and writing addition and multiplication number sentences to represent each arrangement.

1. Multiplication

2. There are 12 circles.
How can you arrange them into equal rows?

3. What number sentences could
you write to go with this array?
2 x 6 = 12 or 6 x 2 = 12
6 + 6 = 12
2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 12

4. Try to arrange this circles into
array:

5. What number sentences could
you write to go with this array?
4 x 3 = 12
3 x 4 = 12 or
4 + 4 + 4 = 12
3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12

6. 1. Arrange this circles and make
a number sentence.

7. What number sentences could
you write to go with this array?
10 x 2 = 20
2 x 10 = 20
10 + 10 = 20
2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2
= 20 OR …

8. 4 x 5 = 20
5 x 4 = 20
4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 20
5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 20

9. Now try doing this on your own.
6 circles
14 squares
15 hearts
9 stars

10. 6 counters
2 x 3 = 6 3 x 2 = 6
3 + 3 = 6 2 + 2 + 2 = 6

11. 2 x 7 = 14 or 7 x 2 = 14
7 + 7 = 14
2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 14
14 squares

12. 3 x 5 = 15
5 x 3 = 15 or
3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 15
5 + 5 + 5 = 15
15 hearts

13. 3 x 3 = 9
3 x 3 = 9
3 + 3 + 3 = 9
9 stars
3 + 3 + 3 = 9
