To answer this questions the students were paired up with a partner and discussed the different strategies they came up with. A few of them were:
· repeated adding/skip counting
· trial and error multiplication
· number lines
· drawing all 156 bottles first, grouping them into groups of six, then counting the number of groups.
· arrays
· repeated subtraction
· long division
After students discussed their strategies they wrote them on a big piece of chart paper and we had a "gallery walk.. Students left thoughtful comments to their peers about their thinking and their strategies and then we shared!
