Multiplies of 9 #2
Reinforce the multiplying by nine as a number pattern. After completing sequences of the multiples of nine, pupils decipher a pattern in the entire nine times tables. Finally, they write down any patterns that they see. A great way to...
Curated OER
Multiples of 8 #2
How quickly can your third graders recite their eight times table? Help them with their mental math by focusing on multiplying by eight. After completing six number sequences, pupils solve word problems and multiplication sentences. A...
