As you may have noticed, my blog has recieved a little makeover! I love it! Thanks to Megan Favre at a A Bird in Hand Designs!
I have just returned from my maternity leave and man did I miss my kiddos!! To help my kids really learn their facts, we always do weekly timed tests starting with 0's and 1's and then moving up each week. As kids pass each test, they color in a section of their multiplication sundae sheets. You can see the example below!
At the end of the year, we have an ice cream sundae party to celebrate!
Here is the checklist I use to keep track so students don't try to cheat on their coloring sheets. =)

I created my own timed tests to use. The students just fill in what math fact they are on in the first column and then I call out the second factor. When they have done that, they turn their papers over and I set a timer for a given amount of time. I usually give them a minute and a half. You can do what is best for you. I collect all of the papers when the timer goes off. They must correctly answer all 13 questions to pass.
I just LOVE it Ginger! It is super cute!!!

Ginger, where did you find your multiplication timed tests? I'm hoping to get something similar started in my class! I love the idea.
ReplyDeleteI added them to this post! I made mine myself! =)
