'Number Crew on
Wheels'
In which the Number Crew have to work out how many roller boots
they need for the passengers.
Bradley has a go wearing roller boots, and soon lots of the
passengers want to try. Ted says he can make boots for the
passengers but he needs to know how many. The crew count the
passengers that want a go but realise that isn't all they need to
know. They need to know the number of feet each passenger has. They
realise there's simple way to say two and two and two and two -
four lots of two. They realise they are multiplying. The passengers
have a great time.
