It's Christmas time in Array City! The students made these lovely winter city scenes in art and we added some math content by making and labeling arrays with the window patterns.
After students made their arrays, it was time to label with math content. The third graders had to write the fact family for the array represented. We even got into a math discussion about perfect squares and square roots.
The students are working hard on learning multiplication and division. Learning how to multiply/divide and memorizing the basic facts is a huge third grade objective. We are working hard at building the foundation. Then, we will spend the next couple months on strategies and fact fluency. This is a great standard to practice at home. Multiplication flash cards make a great gift. Wink, wink! And, check out this multiplication table puzzle on Amazon! Ho, ho, ho! Here is a list of online games to play:
