Directions:

• Use the red counters to create an array that shows 5 rows of 3.
• What multiplication equation can you write to represent the array?
• Add 1 row of 3 with yellow counters. 
• How can we write an equation to show that we started with 5 groups of 3 and added another group of 3?
• Now try making these arrays, and writing an equation:
  • 6 X 4 = 
  • 6 X 8 =
  • 6 X 6 =

Assignment

• Draw the chart below in your math notebook.
• Create your own multiplication story that shows items that come in groups of 6. Draw a picture, write a story problem, and model
  the equation with a number line.
