Skit Multiplication  

 

 

Okay guys, let’s learn some quick tips on multiplying 

Have you listened to your counting by numbers songs 1-12? 

Well if you have not you must  

For they are simply your time tables 

So listen to your number counting songs 

It tells what orders the numbers come in  

Without having the problems to work 

Learn them and you will know your time tables  

And all you have to do is multiply  

Now, multiplying is like adding numbers many times 

Because multi means many as in Multi-ply 

Ok for example, when you multiply the sign you’ll use is a little x  

That tells you to multiply the numbers together  

Let’s take 3x5 - 3x5 is 15 again 

Listen to your counting by numbers song 

For this one you’ll listen to your counting by 5  

And your counting by 3 song 

Moving along, 3x5 is like adding three five times 

3+3+3+3+3 yep just adding 

Like 3+3 = 6 plus 3 more is 9 plus 3 more is 12 

Plus 3 more is 15 

But you’re not going to want to do this every time as the numbers get bigger 

Cause they do get bigger as you go along 

Or…we could add five three times 

5+5 =10 plus 5 more is 15 

Every number can be multiplied by every number 

Let’s try again 2x7 =14 

You can first listen to your count by 7 and count by 2 songs 

Or since 2x7 is saying you’re either adding seven two times 

That’s 7+7=14 or you will add two seven times 

That is 2+2+2+2+2+2+2 work it out you’ll get 14 

Remember learn your counting by number songs 

Now… here’s some more lessons on multiplying
