Goal: Construct math sentences through drawing and repeated addition.
Let’s practice making your own multiplication pictures! You will need 25 counters, a pencil, and a piece of paper. Let’s try one together! These are the sentences that will go with the picture we create!
5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = ?
5 \({ \times }\) 5 = ?
Click below to make the multiplication picture. Then add to find the answer!
5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = ?
___ ___ ___ ___ ___
5 \({ \times }\) 5 = ?
How many circles do we need? Remember, the number of circles is the number of groups, which is also the first factor. The number of addends and the first factor tell us this number.
There are 5 groups. We need 5 circles. Draw 5 circles.
5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = ?
5 \({ \times }\) 5 = ?
How many dots go in each circle? The number of counters in each circle is the number of dots in each group. The repeated addend and the second factor tell us this number. Put the correct number of counters in each circle. Draw the correct number of dots in each circle. Click Show Me to check your work!
There are 5 in each group. We need 5 counters in each circle.
5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = ?
5 \({ \times }\) 5 = ?
The answer is the sum of the addition sentence. It is also the product of the multiplication sentence. Use your picture to find the answer. Click Show Me to check your work!
5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 25
5 \({ \times }\) 5 = 25
The sum is 25. The product is 25.
