What is an array?
Oh, you’re buying oranges for your hockey team?
So, 7 players on your team?
And each player gets 3 oranges at half time?
So that’s 3 plus 3 plus 3 plus 3…ummm…
How did you figure that out?
An array?
Ok, so we need 7 groups of 3 oranges
Ah! You put them in 3 rows of 7 to make an array which shows 7 times 3
Or 3 times 7?
So that’s 21.
21 oranges
Oh.
Well, the maths was very impressive.
