First of all the most important thing to remember is Rows and Columns, I used to get mixed up with rows and columns, but there is a trick to remember and Mrs Miller told room 12 that trick. Rows mean right across and columns mean come on down. The definition is to count the total number of square units inside a shape. The other day we did a really fun activity and we had to pack up the classroom and get our own chairs and we made it as a plane. When Mrs Miller told us she wanted us to be in 4 rows and 5 columns we put 5 chairs right across and then we had 5 columns. Then we had to figure out the maths of the plane.
Maths: 4=Rows 5=columns
4x5=20

| If you count carefully you will see 20 square units |
So that means the plane had 20 chairs.
Well done Livy, this is a good explanation of our learning.
