Some students are setting up a school garden.
Do not use a calculator to answer the maths problems below.
a) Hohepa planted 9 rows with 8 tomato plants in each row.
Show how to work out how many tomato plants he planted altogether.
9 x 8 = 72

I am blogging this because I really liked the maths we did and also it was SO FUN!
