Third graders have SKILLS... they're MULTIPLYING!  Students have been using different strategies to multiply, including: arrays, skip counting, number lines, and bar diagrams.  Each week, they take timed multiplication fact quizzes and are able to sign the Multiplication Masters wall if they prove mastery.  They are also going head to head in multiplication fact competitions.  Who says fluency is just for reading?
