Creating fact families

For numeracy this week we have been investigating how multiplication and division facts help each other. For example if we know that 7x8=56, we can use this fact to solve 8x7, 56 divided by 7 and 56 divided by 8. We used cards or ten sided dice to create fact families that had two multilication and two division number sentences as members. Jarvis made his fact family by turning over 3 cards. He used two cards to make a 2 digit number and used the other card's number by itself. Watch the video to see the strategies he used when making his fact family.
