This lesson introduces the yearlong review of the multiplication and division facts. Students use flash cards to review the multiplication and division facts for the first group of facts, the 5s and 10s. They record both the multiplication and division facts they know and can answer quickly on charts, which they will continue to update throughout the year. Specific DPP items in Unit 2 continue the practice of the 5s and 10s. In the DPP for Units 3–6, the other four groups of facts (2s and 3s, square numbers, 9s, and the last six facts—4 × 6, 4 × 7, 4 × 8, 6 × 7, 6 × 8, and 7 × 8) are practiced and assessed.

Materials for the Teacher

Materials Preparation

Cut Out Flash Cards. Prepare copies on card stock and have students cut apart the Triangle Flash Cards for the 5s and 10s and place them in envelopes. You may want to provide each student with two sets, one to use at school and one to take home.

Prepare Small Multiplication Tables. Use the Small Multiplication Tables Master to make two small multiplication tables for each student. Students can attach one to their desk or notebook and take the other one home. This will allow access to all the facts while they are working on problems or playing games.

Prepare Optional Targeted Practice. Make copies of the Floor Tiler Assessment Master. Gather spinner materials, crayons or markers, and scissors to place in a center.
