We learnt how to use skip counting and repeated addition to figure out multiplication questions.
Skip counting is counting up/down using the same number. For example Benny has six two dollar coins in his bank. How much money does Benny have? 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12. Benny has $12 in her bank.
Repeated adittion is repeating a certain number to get an answer for a problem. For example Sandy has fifteen red balloons. Malanie has three times more then Sandy. How many red balloons does Melanie have now? 3x15= 15+15+15. Melanie has 45 red balloons.
I learned a lot about multiplication and different ways on how to solve math equations.
