Multiplication Fact Fluency

I hope you’re having a sweet start to your summer! Some parts of the world are already experiencing heat in the 100s. Wherever you are, I hope that you’re staying cool and rested. And if you’re teaching summer school, I hope that you find shade on the playground and engaging activities to do with your students inside to beat the heat.

Word of the Week: 

Fetter

 

Literally: a chain or shackle for the feet

Figuratively: something that confines or restrains someone

Don’t let the fetters of last school year influence summer school or the 2022-2023 school year!

You’re buying freeze pops for your summer school class. You left your roster at home, so you decide to do some quick math to figure out how many freeze pops you need to buy. You know that you have 6 students sitting together in table groups and 5 table groups total. How many students do you have altogether? How many freeze pops should you buy? Hopefully, you know how to multiply 6 X 5 to find the answer, but your students may not! They may need a multiplication refresher. 

Summer school is a great time to review areas that students may have struggled with throughout the school year. For somel students, multiplication is difficult. So why not give students more practice this summer?
