Array City

The beginning strategies of multiplication are repeated addition and arrays. We created arrays with manipulatives, and students used objects from home to create more arrays.  We looked for arrays all over the school and learned that arrays are everywhere!  Next we studied a piece of art from The Johnson Collection in downtown Spartanburg which displays arrays in skyscraper windows. Students then created their own skyscraper array. Finally, we put them all together to make an Array City!
