This medium-level worksheet contains 14 problems designed for 2nd Grade students practicing arrays. Medium worksheets introduce larger numbers and varied question formats to deepen understanding and build fluency.

Arrays are a powerful visual model for multiplication that students will return to when learning area in Grade 3. They also make the commutative property obvious: a 3×4 array contains the same number of objects as a 4×3 array.

  • Arrange objects into rows and columns to form an array
  • Write a multiplication sentence for a given array
  • Understand that switching rows and columns gives the same product (commutative property)
  • Draw an array to represent a given multiplication fact
  • Find the total in an array by multiplying rows by columns
