from Fair Field Junior looked at the first row of grids in the

Rajeev. You've explained your thinking very clearly.
Libby, Chloe-Anne and Becky from Maldon Primary School looked at
the patterns of tables on differently-sized grids. Chloe-Anne
think Becky is saying that when you create the pattern of the times
table that is the same as the size of the grid, you get a straight
line going downwards, or vertically. Well spotted!
