In a Year 2 mathematics lesson from Max Maths, children are introduced to the concept of multiplication as a means of finding the total number of items when they are grouped. This lesson focuses on multiplying by 2, 3, and 4. The lesson begins by presenting a scenario where students must determine the total number of cups by writing a multiplication sentence. The blank multiplication sentence is a visual prompt for students to fill in the numbers that represent the number of groups and the number of items in each group, leading to the total number of cups.

The lesson continues with a similar exercise involving cubes, where students count in 2s to find the total amount. Again, they are encouraged to express their findings as a multiplication sentence, reinforcing the concept of multiplication as repeated addition. To further practise these skills, children are presented with a series of multiplication problems involving the numbers 2, 3, and 4. These exercises are designed to help them become fluent in basic multiplication facts. After completing these exercises, students are directed to workbook pages 89 to 94 to continue practising multiplying by 2, 3, and 4, solidifying their understanding of these foundational multiplication skills.
