| Do you know how to count by 2? | |
| | |
|
|
| | |
| Yes, it is call skip counting we do that in class sometimes. But what does that have to do with multiplication? | |

| EVERYTHING... Think about it this way: How much is 2+2+2+2+2+2 or in other words 6 groups of 2. Or better yet how much is 6+6 or 2 groups of 6. | |

|
| | |
| Oh Okay. Now I get it. I can also skip count by 2s on the number line and stop after six jumps. | |
