Pokémon: Master Multiplication Facts & Board Game Fun!

🤘 Who's ready to catch as many Pokémon as we can, and join in on the fun of learning our multiplication facts? 🤘

In our Pokémon themed class, students will discover the many tips & tricks of learning multiplication facts (numbers 0 - 12). To solidify our learning experience, students will play multiple rounds of a multiplication board game! 

🧠 We do not play Pokémon in this class, but will have a themed class to encourage students to relate something they love with something they are learning! In essence, your student won't even realize they are learning their multiplication facts as I utilize various Pokémon themed images, terminology, and discussion to encapsulate their experience! Plus, students will bond over a relatable topic!

🧠 To enhance our learning experience, we add the twist of playing a board game that goes along with the multiplication facts learned in the lesson of the day! Students will receive two board game sheets prior to class (students will need to print prior to class). Students will also need one die (dice), as well as, something to keep track of their spot on the board. The tracker can be a monopoly piece, coin, button, etc. As the teacher, I will have a document camera to follow along with the students, just in case anyone loses their spot on the board. At the end of class, I will attach a worksheet for students to use as practice if they desire!

🧠 Everyone has a different learning style, and retains information at various rates! In this class, we breakdown multiplication fact families one number at a time (numbers 0-12) to ensure we do not rush the process. Our multiplication facts will vary in order in which we will cover them. For instance, we want to begin with the easiest multiplication facts first, before we attempt to master the harder ones! If we began with the harder facts, not only will it affect our mentality about multiplication, but our overall demeanor when it comes to learning mathematical facts. Remember, this class is meant for you to master multiplication and to fall in LOVE with math all the more! 

🧠 As we dive into the easier multiplication facts first, it will better prompt eagerness when switching into the harder facts. The goal is to understand our fact families by utilizing mental math skills to push our boundaries without the use of a multiplication chart, pencil or paper!
