2 Pairs of Feet - Multiplying by 2

Introduce mathematicians to multiplication through counting sets of feet. Start by asking them, "How many feet are in this classroom?" See if they notice that it's easier to count pairs rather than individual feet. Scholar use the example as guidance before multiplying sets of feet in five problems. The last two allow learners to draw their own pictures to accompany a completed multiplication sentence. Encourage them to think outside of feet; what else comes in pairs?
