Three Times Table Trick

Three Times Table Trick

(0)
Three rimes table trick with arrays to help with the three times table multiplication strategy . This clear, step-by-step and helpful PowerPoint will help students learn that multiplication by 3 can be done by doubling and adding another set. e.g. to calculate 3 × 14: first double 14 getting 28, then add another 14, (to get 3 times 14) which is 42. 21 Examples are presented (from 3 x 2 up to 3 x 21) in order, or from a hyperlink menu. Each slide shows the sum and a confused face, Then two lines of the matching array (showing the doubling array) Then another set (another line of the array) is added Whilst the matching thought process is shown with clear sums. Finally everything apart from the x3 sum and array dissolve out, leaving just the sum, the answer and the x3 array. Each part of the thought multiplication strategy is presented when you click the mouse, giving students time to work out and explain each step. Includes 3 level differentiated mathcing sylte worksheets and skip counting x3 worksheets. Also see my Multiplication Strategies pack which includes this trick and other common multiplication strategies https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/mental-multiplication-strategies-11756501

Mental Subtraction Strategy

(0)
Compensation Strategy for Mental Subtraction. By visually illustrating the mental subtraction strategy of compensation by using moving base ten blocks and a bin my students where able to better understand how answers are adjusted by adding back or subtracting more and therefore compensating for the rounding which made the question easier. PowerPoint includes 5 examples with base ten blocks and 5 matching slides with matching sums but just the thought process and 2 additional examples without base ten blocks to help learners move from a pictorial representation to an abstract one. Download includes a double sided worksheet based around the PowerPoint teaching.

Times Table Speed Card Sorting Game
PrimaryWowPrimaryWow

Times Table Speed Card Sorting Game

(1)
Simple against the clock sorting game for students to practice times tables. Print onto card and get students to cut them out. To play the game: 1) Turn cards upside down and mix them around 2) Begin turning them over and sorting them into the correct order when the stopwatch starts. 3) Record your time for each day of the week. 4) Keep cards in an envelope ready to play the following day. I print one set for each pair of students in my class and they play as a teams against the other students in the class. (cooperative, social constructivist learning etc.) But can also be used as an individual fast finisher game. Provided are cards for the 4 times table, as that is what my class are learning this week, but very easy to edit for any times table. Provided three versions: one with the 'x symbol, multiplicand. & = symbol' on one card (least number of pieces) [this version also includes 4 wrong answers to make it a little more difficult] , one with 2 digit product on one card (harder), and one with each digit on separate cards (hardest, and also easiest for them to lose cards of ;-))
Square Numbers Introduction

Square Numbers Introduction

(0)
Visual introduction to square number patterns . Useful as a visual introduction to exploring square numbers and/or as a lesson starter. A square is slowly built by adding the next odd number of squares to the first to make a bigger square (number). 3 animated slides (don't bore your students too much, just use 1 a lesson) *Slide 1 uses a growing pattern of odd numbers in an addition sentence (underneath the square) to create square numbers. *Slide 2 uses the above plus the matching multiplication sentence. *Slide 3 uses the visual and only the multiplication sentence. I like to show slide 1 with just the addition sentence first off and impress my students with my quick fire maths skills ;-) "1+3+5+7+11+13+15+17+19+21+23 = 135". The following day I'll teach them the trick of multiplication. A few of my higher ability will be able to answer the addition sentences on their own at the end of a lesson. You'll need a bit of patience as the squares reveal themselves. Hope students around the world enjoy it (?) and that it makes multiplication that little more understandable. Please rate and comment politely, all my resources are shared freely.

Levels are; BRONZE For being able to say a complete multiplication table in order. e.g. "One times two is two. Two times two is four etc." SILVER For being able to give the product of the numbers multiplied together, out of order. e.g. Q: “What is six x two?", "What is twelve x two?" etc. GOLD For giving facts when presented with the product only e.g. “24?” “12 x 2” Please rate and comment if you find them useful.

Beginner division speed math worksheets introducing/reinforcing division as being the inverse of multiplication - "Think multiplication" (to do division) Files - 'speed division inverse of multiplication_worksheet1' & 2 present multiplication turnaround facts followed by matching inverse division facts in groups of 4. e.g. 5 x 2 = 2 x 5 = 10 ÷ 2 = 10 ÷ 5 = File - 'speed division inverse of multiplication_using multi to divide_missing multiplier2_4_6_8_9' Present only one multiplication followed it's inverse division, in columns of facts for 2, 4, 6, 8, and 9 times tables: e.g. 2s Facts 2 x ___ = 18 18 ÷ 2 = 2 x ___ = 14 14 ÷ 2 = Other worksheet presents mixed problems with the multiplication having the missing multiplier e.g 2 x ___ = 18 18 ÷ 2 = Students are therefore encouraged to 'think multiplication' when doing division.
