Children will build on their knowledge of the 2 times-table to multiply by 4. They will draw arrays recognise that multiplying by 4 is the same as doubling then doubling again. They will apply their knowledge of equal groups, using concrete manipulatives and pictorial representations to support making the link between counting in 4s and multiplying by 4, whilst also exploring the commutativity of multiplication.
