Multiplication as Repeated Addition – Year 2

Build an intuitive foundation for multiplication by helping Year 2 students see and describe equal groups. This unit begins with the language of groups, then connects pictures, arrays and skip-counting patterns to repeated-addition and multiplication sentences.

The editable presentation provides a clear whole-class teaching sequence with learning intentions, worked examples, strategy prompts, guided practice and review. A separate editable quiz includes 10 question-and-answer pairs covering equal groups, repeated addition, arrays, skip counting, word problems and multiplication notation.

Colour classroom resources add visual and hands-on practice through a display, reference mat, sorting station, two matching-card sets and a race game. Five print-friendly worksheets build independent skill from identifying equal groups to solving repeated-addition word problems. Red-answer pages, a two-page assessment with answers and a marking rubric support efficient feedback and reporting.
