After learning so much about seeds, I decided that it would make a lot more sense to teach my students how to use real life application when it comes to multiplication and division.
Students worked in pairs to count their seeds, and divide them up evenly in piles. Once their array was completed, they needed to make their division word problem.
"Our group started with 100 seeds. We divided them up into 10 even groups of 10.
