Multiplication Facts

We have had a GREAT start of to the school year! Ms. Strum has had fun games and lessons planned to review 3rd grade skills to build on what we learned last year. Ms. Strum has told us that it is VERY important to learn our multiplication facts. We must know our multiplication facts to do a lot of skills in Math. One thing that we did in our room was play Multiplication Bingo. Ms. Strum gave us counters, a bingo card, and a multiplication fact sheet. One of our classmates would call out the multiplication fact and we would have to solve the fact. The student who won the game would be the next person to call out the multiplication facts.

The next activity that Ms. Strum had planned for us to learn our multiplication facts was Dice Multiplication. Each student was paired with a partner and given two dice. We were to roll the dice and write the multiplication fact sheet and solve the multiplication problem. This was so much fun. We had a great time learning our facts this way.

As you can tell, we have had a great time learning our multiplication facts. This was so much fun! We can't wait to see what else Ms. Strum has planned for us to learn our multiplication facts.
