Fun With Factors!

4K has been learning all about factors! Factors are the numbers in a multiplication number sentence. There are many ways to find factors, common factors and the greatest common factor. One way was to make a factor rainbows.
We also used factor ladders to find the Greatest Common Factor. On this video the instructor, uses the words "upside down birthday cake" instead of ladders, but she does a nice job showing you how to make ladders to find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF).

Our Essential Questions for this activity is:
"How do you show respect for others?"
