This book is designed to help students develop a rich understanding of multiplication and division through a variety of problem contexts models and methods that elicit multiplicative thinking Elementary level math textbooks have historically presented only one construct for multiplication: repeated addition
Traditional approaches to learning multiplication facts (flash cards drill and timed testing) attempt to move stu-dents from phase 1 directly to phase 3 This approach is ineffective—many students do not retain what they memorized in the long term moving to grade 4 and beyond still not knowing their facts
Adapted from Randall Charles Fact strategies are considered a crucial second phase in a three-phase program for teaching students basic math facts. The first phase is concept learning Here, the goal is for students to understand the meanings of multiplication and division.
There are a few main challenges that we encounter when teaching basic multiplication facts. First – time. How do we find the time to do a really good job of teaching the multiplication facts, while also doing a really good job of teaching everything else in our overwhelming curriculum?
Fortunately, there are simple shifts that we can make in our teaching to make multiplication easier for our students and accessible for all of them. We can teach in a strategic order that really makes practical sense. We can also teach our students strategies for each set of facts that will make multiplication FUN, and less challenging.
62 Using Known Facts to Derive Other Facts Only 25 multiplication facts remain (actually fewer, due to the commutative property). These facts can be learned by relating each to an already known fact (or helping fact).
