Multiplication FUN!

The beginning stages of Multiplication are beginning...and your children

are doing FANTASTIC!!!

After a few short lessons at the board we jumped right into practicing how to multiply using what we already know about skip counting, and addition.  I was amazed at how fast they picked it up!!!

 2 X 3  =6                            Multiplication Sentence

Center #1

Use cool stamps and make your own groups and write 

all of the above information about your groups

Center #2

A little worksheet about groups of statements

Center #3

Roll 2 dice...One dice tells you how many groups to make

and the other dice tells you how many are in each group.  Now
write everything you know about your groups.

Summer Project Idea

To be ready for next year a great summer project would be to learn your

multiplication facts really well...make yourself some flashcards with info 

just like this.  Drawing cool pictures for your groups would make 

this a fun little project!!  You would hardly notice how much you are learning.

Offer your child an extra minute of device time, or swimming time for 

every flashcard they make!!!!

DIVISION IS NEXT!!!
