Ahhh...Multiplication Facts
How in the world to get kids to memorize facts? (Yes, they should. Problem solving is inefficient without an automatic command of basic skills and facts.) But it needn't be steady stream of timed Mad Minutes or flash cards. Make it fun!
I am the math specialist in the Riverside Unified School District. My (dream) job involves working with teachers, principals, parents and students to promote effective math instruction.
