This term, Second Grade students are learning how to multiply and divide. It has been a very satisfying and enjoyable process because they have learned by playing using concrete materials, such as buttons and ice cube trays or cups. The concepts of putting together equal groups for multiplication and sharing and grouping for division have been easily acquired by children through this methodology, which is part of the Singapore Math method. This method focuses on using the concrete, pictorial and abstract steps for students to learn and be able to apply Math in their lives.
