數學事實家庭：以有趣的方式學習乘法和除法事實

In this ongoing class, learners meet 1X a week learning multiplication and division facts in a fun way. Learners will gain an understanding of multiplication and division, the relationship between the two, how real math works using manipulatives, arrays, songs, movement, skip counting and stories in this fun, engaging camp.

The goal of this Math class is to help each learner understand the math that they see. Learners learn much easier using visual and kinesthetic methods that are represented by 3-D manipulatives, unifix cubes, blocks, cubes, legos, popsicle sticks and coins which are all invaluable tools for helping the learner see how Math facts work together. We will be using such manipulatives each day in camp.

The learners will gain an understanding of what the multiplication and division process is through the grouping of manipulatives, manually moving and drawing various objects in arrays, using graph paper, tiles or blocks. Learners will work on hearing the numbers in sequence as they skip count, listening to stories about each different fact family, act it out and retell the story. Learners will sing multiplication and division songs cementing the concepts. They will practice finger tricks to learn and memorize the facts. Learners will have a CHALLENGE: a math riddle to answer. So put on your thinking cap and let the fun begin!

Learners who thought they couldn't learn and remember multiplication and division facts find they can once they complete MATH Fact Families: Learn Multiplication & Division Facts the FUN Way.

✅ ✅ PARENT NOTE: Upon enrollment, please make sure learners have their supplies listed in the Learner Supply List below. Bring supplies to the first lesson, ready to work.

For academic purposes, cameras and mics must be working and turned on for the duration of each lesson.

Learners use a Magnetic Base Ten kit in this course, depending on their math level skill. I recommend Simply Magic's Jumbo Colorful Magnetic Base Ten kit available from Amazon.
