What is multiplication?


We have been discussing how addition and multiplication can be related.  Each of the children wrote about what they think multiplication is and some children gave examples.  In the classroom, the children were working with smaller numbers and realized that if 6 children each have two eyes you can write 2+2+2+2+2+2=12 or you can write 6x2=12.
