About
Looking for a way to help your students make sense of multiplication and build their mental math skills? Helping students truly understand multiplication rather than simply memorize the facts can be transformative for your students’ math confidence and performance.
Math becomes easier when we can see it! These task cards include powerful visuals to help students visualize what multiplication really means. Multiplication becomes a lot less intimidating when students can see how facts like 4x6 and 8x6 are related. Better yet, it becomes FUN when students realize they can solve a big fact like 15x5 mentally simply by breaking it down into more manageable parts!
Although these task cards are excellent for those teaching multiplication to beginners, they can also be powerful for students in older grades who still struggle with multiplication facts. Often these students have gaps in their understanding and do not understand multiplication conceptually. These visual task cards can help fill that gap.
