Making Sense of Multiplication (Journals)

Description:

Help your students develop a conceptual understanding of multiplication. With this new interactive journal, students can learn multiplication facts using a concrete-pictorial-abstract approach, and build a solid foundation for future fact fluency. As they complete the activities, students will begin to see patterns and pictures within the facts, which will develop mental math strategies they can apply to more difficult problems.
