This math topic practices basic multiplication and counting skills through visualization. Problems involve counting specific numbers of items in groups, such as fingers on hands and arms on starfish, to calculate totals. The students are asked how many of a certain item there would be given a specific number of groups, each containing the same number of those items. The questions provide multiple-choice answers, which encourage practice in evaluating and selecting correct calculations. This is part of an introductory unit on multiplication derived from counting strategies.
