In this one-time class students will take turns playing a Kirby memory math game which will provide an introduction into three multiplication concepts. The zero property, the identity property and the commutative property. We will practice our 0 and 1 multiplication facts. This class offers a way to teach the beginning concepts of multiplication in a fun, relaxed kind of way. While individually taking turns to identify pairs, students will also have the opportunity to work together and help each other learn.  Each student will have multiple turns during the game and multiple games may be played as time permits. This class is great for students who love Kirby and all of his friends (and a couple enemies too!)

My class setting is a relaxed, fun, open space for students to be able to discuss and express their thoughts about what we are learning. I encourage student interaction with not only myself but with their fellow classmates. Everyone is expected to be respectful and listen to one another but also feel like they have the ability to share their own thoughts and opinions. I believe learning should be fun and try to provide a space for that to happen
