Small Multiplication Charts and Other Math Tools

Small multiplication charts are handy tools for reinforcing multiplication skills and can be used effectively alongside other learning aids like flashcards and games in various ways. Continue reading below to see how it can complement these other math tools…

Use small multiplication charts as a reference while working with flash cards. Create or use printable flash cards with problems that correspond to entries on the chart. Quiz students on specific multiplication facts, and have them check their answers against the chart to verify their responses. After using flash cards to test their knowledge, students can use the chart to reinforce and review the facts they found challenging.

Integrate small multiplication charts into board games where players might need to check multiplication facts to move forward or win. For example, you can create a board game where players roll dice and use the chart to find the product of the dice rolls. You can also use the charts in quiz-style games where students have to answer multiplication questions and use the chart to verify their answers or see if they were correct. Another example is to incorporate charts in timed challenge rounds where students quickly locate and solve multiplication problems to score points or complete tasks.

Set up math stations where students rotate through different activities. One station can feature the small multiplication chart as a reference tool for solving problems at other stations. You may also combine physical charts with hands-on activities like building multiplication fact families using manipulatives and then refer to the chart for verification.

For visual learners, using a small multiplication chart alongside manipulatives like number lines can significantly enhance students' understanding of multiplication by making abstract concepts more tangible. By using the small chart, students can quickly check their answers and see patterns. For example, if they use the number line to count by 5's, they can refer to the chart to see that 5 × 4 = 20, showing the concept that each jump on the number line corresponds to a product shown on the chart.

Use the small multiplication chart alongside worksheets that have blank multiplication grids. Students can fill in the charts based on their knowledge and then use the small chart to check their answers or fill in any gaps.

Use small charts during review sessions to quickly look up and practice multiplication facts that students are working on in other activities. In problem-solving activities, students can use charts to check their calculations and understand the relationship between numbers more clearly. They can also refer to the chart to check their answers or to see multiplication facts they may be unsure about.

After identifying multiplication facts that a student struggles with using flashcards or games, they can focus on those specific facts on the chart. Use the charts to track progress and improvement over time. Students can mark off mastered facts or highlight areas that need more practice.

In group activities or math circles, small charts can be used as a shared resource to facilitate discussion and collaborative problem-solving. Students can also use the charts to help teach peers who might be struggling with certain multiplication facts, reinforcing their own understanding in the process.

Encourage students to use small multiplication charts as part of their homework routine to reinforce what they’ve learned through flashcards and games. Additionally, providing charts to parents to use alongside educational games and flashcards at home will facilitate support and practice outside the classroom.
