Learning our favourite 3x tables

Monday, August 4, 2014

Why do we need to learn to multiply?

Check out this video to see why we need to learn out times tables.

We use our times tables to:

  • pay wages to hairdressers (Maia & Aimee)
  • make different foods and work out how many ingredients you need for each recipe (Dyna & Sophia)
  • know how many towels hotel cleaners need for each room (Vishakha)
  • work out pocket money $$$ (Sophie)
