Ready for some multiplying and dividing fun? Great! You'll use skip-counting and grouping to do just that. Follow the directions, check the examples, and complete the activities.

When you skip-count, you're counting forward by the same number each time. It's a fun way to count groups of things. Multiplying is a quicker way to add the same number again and again. For example, if you have 5 bags and each bag has 2 apples. You can skip-count by 2 five times to get 10. Or you can solve it faster using multiplication: 5 x 2 = 10. Once you understand how groups work, you can use the same idea for division. For example, if you have 10 apples and each bag has 2 apples, you can use division (10 / 2) to figure out that you have 5 bags. Ready to give it a try? Grab your pencil, and let's get started!
