Kavi's Sticker Sheets ✨
Kavi is tidying sticker sheets. Every sheet has stickers in neat rows and columns — 4 rows of 5 ✨! "Instead of counting one by one, I read the array," hoots Kavi. "4 rows × 5 in each = 20. Learn the table facts and you just know it!"

What your child will learn
1Equal groups of 5Here are 4 groups, and every group has the same 5 stars ⭐. Tap each group and add them with Kavi: 5 + 5 + 5 + 5.
2Equal hops are timesEach hop is a group of 5 — every hop the same size. Start at 0 and tap Hop +5: 5, 10, 15, 20. That is 4 hops of 5 — the same as 4 × 5.
3Rows × columnsAn array lines things up in equal rows. This frame has 2 rows of 5. Tap Add 5 to fill the top row, then again for the bottom.
4Know your fives fastNo pictures now — just know them. Counting in groups of 5 lights up the answers: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30.

A peek inside
Kavi fills 4 sheets with 5 stars each ⭐. How many stars altogether?
4 groups of 5 → 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 → 4 × 5
Try this at home: Equal groups: 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = __ · write it as a times: 4 × __ = __
