The activities in this book are designed to develop readiness for multiplication and division. Children use the frog counters to act out the number relationships in multiplication and division. They use the counters to make equal groups and add them. They act out sharing a total number of counters among different groups to divide. These activities serve as a bridge in understanding between addition and multiplication and between subtraction and division, helping to develop readiness for more symbolic work with the operations in later years. All the activities support current mathematics standards
