Multiplying Slices of Bread

This week, Year 1 have used the data we collected last week to work out how many students want toast for our breakfast next week. 

They have been multiplying the number of students who want toast by the amount of slices they want. 

Have a look at how some students have shown this in their book...

In our maths reflection, Blake from 1G said that in his lego set at home it uses the word 'by' to describe the size of the arrays. He said that "We could write that array as 13 by 2". We also reflected on other ways we can write it.
