Multiplication Fact Practice


We started unit 4 in math today and it is very heavy with multiplication facts. In an effort to boost their confidence and fact recall we have started doing Rocket Math minute multiplication tests before each math class. On the sheets your student will bring home the problems along the outside of the paper are done out loud before the timed test begins, and they will have listed how many problems they got out of 63. II will be keeping a copy at school for the students to review their progress. If you find your student needs more practice there are many free websites out there!
