곱셈의 마스터 사실: 0~12 곱하기

During this ongoing course, students will learn that multiplication is the process of repeated addition. Prior to learning multiplication facts, students should have a strong understanding of both basic addition facts and the addition process. Students will then work on mastering their multiplication facts and times table for multiplying the numbers 0 to 12. Students will use a hands on approach to master their math facts using manipulative, guided practice, modeling, and independent practice. At the end of each class the students will play a short game to practice their new math set of math facts. The mastery of math facts and multiplication fluency is foundational for students as they progress in math and build fluency in their mathematical problem solving skills. Multiplication,  will also continue to be used in many daily, real world situations that students encounter. 

What to Expect

1. Each week will begin with a brief warm-up.. 

2. The weekly set of multiplication facts will be introduced and discussed using the multiplication table.

3. A rhyme, chant, song, rule, or trick will be introduced and used as a fun tool for memorizing the week's multiplication facts. 

4. We will end with an activity that reinforces the weekly multiplication facts.  The activity introduced during this time, can be used throughout the next week as students master their multiplication facts. I encourage parents and guardians to ask their student to "teach" and participate in the activity with their student. This ensures that students begin to memorize facts and also affirms that the adult(s) in their lives value what they are practicing and learning.
