It’s quite simple. Students work through a series of activities for each level. They complete the activities, self-check using the prepared answer keys, and keep track of their progress using their personal tracker. At the end of each level, the student asks the teacher for a quick, informal oral quiz. If the student knows the strategy, they move to the next level. If not, they simply practice a bit more until they feel ready.

The process is entirely student-run. After the program's first week, you will notice your role switching from teacher to facilitator.

Why do students love this so much? It’s easy! They have power! They have freedom! They are truly in control of their learning. And THAT results in highly motivated students who love to learn.

Add to that an effective order of teaching the strategies that makes practical sense, and you will have students who feel smart, successful, and engaged.

Multi-digit multiplication can actually be quite a controversial topic when it comes to choosing the strategies that we should teach. Using a balance of traditional strategies and "new math" will help your students achieve:

• A deep understanding of numbers and place value concepts when multiplying
• Efficiency from a solid number sense foundation
• Differentiation for different ability levels
• The ability to make connections between multiplication strategies and real-life math problems
• A sense of empowerment and confidence
• Success
