CHRISTMAS ACTIVITY: CHRISTMAS MULTIPLICATION SCOOT Review multiplication facts and build number sense with these 32 Christmas themed multiplication scoot cards on the 1-12 times tables. These cards feature colourful Christmas themed illustrations to make abstract content more concrete and meaningful. There are two styles to the Recording Sheets, one scaffolded to elicit the desired response, and the other includes blank answer sections. The multiplication skills for the 1-12 times tables reinforced in this pack are: ✓ writing a multiplication fact for a number sentence ✓ writing a multiplication fact for a given array, tens frame ✓ writing a multiplication fact for a given group ✓ writing the missing factor ✓ writing the product of two given numbers ✓ writing a multiplication fact for a given illustration ✓ filling in the blanks for a given times table ✓ problem solving using illustrations SUGGESTED USE → Small group rotations (cards may be rotated among small groups of students) → Math Centers → Game of Scoot: There are many variations to the game.
