Charles.
Mike.
Janet.
Kippin.
And Math Dylan.
(kids cheering) (upbeat music) - Hello, chipmunks.
Welcome to Math Park.
I'm Park Ranger A. Rith Metic but you can call me Ranger Rith.
Math Park is the place where seven, eight at times tables and math is always fun.
We're going to have a grand time.
Today, we're going to learn multiplying by six.
(crowd laughing) - [Announcer] We are multiplying by six, and you already have learned some of these facts.
Say them with me.
Six times one is six.
One times six is six.
Six times two is 12.
Two times six is 12.
Six times three is 18.
Three times six is 18.
Six times four is 24.
Four times six is 24.
Six times five is 30.
Five times six is 30.
Six times 10 is 60.
10 times six is 60.
(electronic explosion) And now the new stuff!
Six times six is 36.
(Upbeat electronic music) Seven times six is 42.
(Upbeat electronic music) - Eight times six is 48.
(Upbeat electronic music) (sheep bleating) And nine times six is 54.
(Upbeat electronic music) Multiplying by six.
- Hey, can you say the product to the next multiplication factor you see before this weird lifeguard character does?
(clock ticking) - 18!
(audience cheers) - [Announcer] How many apple trees are there?
Five is correct.
How many apples are in each tree?
Six.
What multiplication fact could we write that goes with this picture?
Five times six is correct.
Do you know the product of five times six?
If you said 30 you are one smart cookie.
- Here's a picture of two cans, and each one has six pencils inside, which multiplication fact goes with the picture?
A?
or B?
A is the correct answer because there are two groups of six.
Two times six equals 12.
(uplifting harp music) - [Announcer] The array of the day.
(laser blasting) (upbeat music) - Beach balls.
We have three rows with six beach balls in each row.
And if we think of the three rows as being like three groups, we would have three groups of six and we would write it as three times six.
And how many beach balls are there altogether?
18.
Three times six is 18.
Now what would happen if we turned the array of beach balls this way?
Now we have six rows of three.
And if we think of it as six groups of three, we can write it as six times three.
And how many beach balls is that?
(uplifting music) 18!
(ominous music) - Howdy sidewinders, I'm Math Dylan.
And we're going to have a little contest today to see who can multiply faster.
The way this works is, you're going to grab a pen and a paper.
And when that multiplication factor appears on the screen, we're going to see who can write the product faster.
But wait till it appears, and then I'll say draw.
Get ready.
Get set.
Draw!
(upbeat music) If you got 48, then you're correct.
Why you're wiser than an owl at a higher highfalutin institution of educational like folks.
But I'm going to get you next time.
(laughing) (ominous music) (gong ringing) - Roberto, are you ready to play Multiplication Cover-Up?
- Sure.
- Great, let me pull up the screen.
(drum banging) - Wow.
- That awesome, I love it.
- Cool.
So what are the rules?
- I'm glad you asked.
And here they go.
- [Announcer] The object of the game is to cover four squares in a row.
You can cover them horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
To cover a product, you must say the multiplication fact that goes with the product, punch the buttons on your remote control to cover the product you want.
- Can I be green?
- Sure, and then I'll be red.
- Okay.
- Would you like to go ahead and start first?
- Sure.
