Two By One Multiplication

Examine young mathematicians' ability to compare and order large numbers with this simple story problem exercise. Using a chart showing the number of people attending a movie over a four day span, learners must list the numbers from...

Transition young mathematicians from using repeated addition to multiplication with this fun, hands-on activity. Using manipulatives and the included game board, students work in pairs modeling repeated addition problems before...

Add some visual support to your elementary geometry lessons with this set of printable shape cards. From triangles and squares to octagons and nanogons, this simple resource can be used in countless ways to develop children's knowledge...

An outstanding PowerPoint presentation on two-digit addition with regrouping awaits your class. The slides present the steps necessary in extremely clear fashion. There are two "internet games" embedded in the final slide that lead to...

While young mathematicians are still working to memorize their multiplication facts, teach them how to use repeated addition when solving multiplication problems. The second video in a series models this skill with multiple examples,...

Explore yet another use of number lines as young mathematicians learn to answer multiplication problems by skip counting. This problem solving approach is clearly modeled with the examples presented in the third video of this series....

Understanding the commutative property of multiplication is a big idea in the development of fluency with multiplication. The sixth video in the series clearly explains this fundamental property with multiple examples and visual models....

Strengthen the problem solving skills of young mathematicians by teaching them to identify multiplication word problems with the fourth video of this series. After introducing two guiding questions to ask when solving story problems, the...

The second of eight videos on rounding whole numbers to the nearest 10 or 100 describes how to use a number line to create benchmark numbers. A review of place value and counting by 10s starts off the lesson, followed by a discussion on...

Step by step, two examples of creating number lines are explained through a series of animations. One is meant to watch at home, the second can be viewed in class, and there is a third tab with two sample problems to try. This skill,...
