Fun and Quick Way to Build in Math to Your Day! No Materials Needed!

Описание: ❓This week ask: When you look at this picture of cubes, what do you notice? What do you wonder?❓

👉Tips:
-Any answer is correct—even if it’s not mathematical! Let your child share freely before nudging their thinking.

-You can ask:
What shapes do you see?
How many groups of cubes are there?
How many cubes are in each group?
How many cubes are there total?

Challenge for older kids:
-Can you connect what you see to an operation? How could you use addition, multiplication, division, or subtraction to describe this picture?
-If you had to share the cubes equally with a friend, how many would you each get? What about with 3 friends? Or 2 friends?

This kind of question helps kids:
➡️ Build observation and reasoning skills through notice/wonder thinking
➡️ Connect visual models to math concepts like equal groups and operations
➡️ Develop early problem-solving strategies with multiplication and division

We extra love questions like this because they tune kids into the critical mathematical idea of Equal Groups. Equal groups are the foundation of understanding multiplication and division. If you want more ways to support your child in developing this critical understanding, then check out our Equal Groups Game Bundle :
