🔍 Explanation:
Multiplication is about
equal groups. For each picture:
- Count how many
groups there are (first number).
- Count how many items are in
each group (second number).
- Multiply them to get the total.
For example:
In the first one, 4 containers (groups), each with 5 pencils → 4 × 5 = 20 pencils total.
This helps students understand multiplication as repeated addition:
`5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 20`, which is the same as `4 × 5`.
Let me know if you'd like this printed or formatted for a student!
