"I am thrilled to have stumbled upon your site! As a homeschooling mom, I love to find sites that encourage brain activity and reinforce the facts I teach during learning time!
The range of information is wonderful!!! Keep up the fantastic work!"
-Mrs. JaNell Hancock

Your website has SO much to offer!

This site is exactly what I have been looking for! I have four children within five years of age and they can all play your games! I love that you can choose your level of difficulty. The games are colorful and simple, not cluttered like some. The instructions are easy to understand and they cover basic learning that can be neglected with other "too busy" games. I can't believe what a blessing it is to have stumbled upon this site! I looked up "kindergarten math games online." This is the first one that I actually enjoyed navigating around in and that actually kept the kids' attention without discouraging them.

This site will be a daily part of our learning! The kids were fighting over who could take the next turn at the learning game! It is reinforcing everything I am trying to teach.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!"

Read about how you can "mathify" the popular squares game to practice multiplication facts! This is a fantastic (and fun!) way to practice multiplication facts (x1 - x6).

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Remember the game you used to play as a kid when you got bored at restaurants? You'd make a grid of 100 (or so) dots on a napkin and each person would get to draw a line to connect 2 dots on his or her turn. When you drew a line that closed a square, you got to write your first initial in the square to show that you had "captured" it. The goal was to be the person who had captured the most squares once all the dots were connected.

I played that game a lot as a kid. It was such a simple game, but it was fun and it had a lot of strategy to it (I mostly played with my younger brother, so I may have particularly enjoyed the fact that I had the upper hand in the strategy). So when I was trying to come up with a new, minimal prep math center for practicing multiplication facts, I decided to try to "mathify" the squares game. I find that it's easy to invest kids when I'm simply introducing a twist on a game that they're already familiar with and enjoy, so this seemed like a no-brainer.
Here's how my "mathified" version works:
1. Download your FREE copy of the game board by clicking here: Multiplication Squares Game.

2. Print out the game board. The game board contains 100 squares with the products of any two numbers that can be rolled with two dice (i.e. 1 x 6, 2 x 4, 3 x 5, etc).

3. Grab two dice and a different colored marker for each player.

Are your students working on multiplication fluency? Multiplication videos are a great way to help students learn to count by multiples.

I've broken the multiplication videos down into groups by multiples. This helps students quickly find one that matches their goal.

The goals slide deck is a new addition to the digital resource, if you already own it, just redownload the teachers manual to find this it. 🙂

There are many strategies for increasing multiplication fluency. I share several of them in this blog post. Counting by a number can be helpful and many students love music.

Multiply by 2

Multiply by 3

Multiply by 4

Multiply by 5

Multiply by 6

Multiply by 7

Multiply by 8

Multiply by 9

Multiply by 10

All Multiplication Videos

This set includes a few that aren't in the others which sometimes practice more than one multiple at a time.

Strategy Videos I've Made

I made a strategy video for each multiple. You can watch one below. The others can be found two ways. All of them are included in my Google Multiplication Resource. If you don't use Google, they are also available individually hosted on TpT.

Transitions in the Classroom

Videos are great for transitions. Students can listen to and sing the songs as they walk in the door or as they clean up. Students spend the first few years of school learning to count by 2s, 5s, and 10s. Suddenly, in third grade, they have to learn to count by 3s, 4s, 6s, 7s, and 8s. Why not sneak practice in daily during transitions?

Classroom Website

I have these video playlists embedded on my classroom website. Also, I teach my students to use the dropdown menu in the top left corner to pick a video. Many students like to watch them at home.

If you want to embed one of these playlists onto a classroom website, just click the YouTube button on the bottom right corner while a video is playing.

Then, it will open on YouTube where you can select the embed code.

In Google Resources

In my Multiplication Facts, Strategies, and Games for the Google Classroom, I have some of my favorite multiplication videos linked at the end of their practice slide decks along with multiplication games. When students have finished their assignment but need more practice to pass the quiz, they can choose to practice with games or watch a video.

Whatever practice you chose, make sure your student is spending the majority of their time actively recalling the product. Apps that ask for kids to answer by multiple choice are not as effective as ones where the kids must come up with the answer on their own.

You will need a small collection of plastic tops from pop and water bottles to create this activity.  You will also need little, round stickers - which fit perfectly on and in the plastic tops (see picture).  Label the sticker on the top with a math fact. The sticker under the cap should have the answer. Take turns picking a cap out of a box/bag! If the person who picks the math fact gets it right, they hold onto it...if they get it wrong, they put it back.  Whoever has the most pop tops at the end wins!

5 Apps to help with multiplication facts

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Technology Thursday is a weekly linky dedicated to all things technology related. Check out our Tech Thursday page for details on how to link up! Today I am going to share my 5 go-to apps for practicing multiplication facts.

Up next is Times Tables Quiz. This is your basic multiplication drill app. I love that the numbers are easy to see, the score changes in the upper right corner (the more quickly they go the higher their points) and the app itself is easy for students to maneuver.

My next go-to app is Times Tables Game. This app has a fun"ninja" style and my students love it! Teachers have the ability to set the range of numbers for the multiplication problems. There is also a timer, so if students are taking too long- it times them out and their turn is over.

The next app is definitely a student FAVORITE. it is called Math Monsters Bingo. Students are given a multiplication problem at the top of their screen and they click the product at the bottom. A little monster marker shows up! Their goal is to get 5 in a row. For each product, there are numerous places a student could pick so they need to not only know the product, but be strategic in choosing one that will help them get to 5 in a row.

The last app is called Multiplication Flash Cards Match. Students play a memory style match game with the flashcards! One flashcard will show the number sentence and the other shows the product. The levels keep changing as students progress through the game. As they make a match the flashcards "explode" into little bits of confetti! So much fun!!

I hope that these five apps will be helpful in your classroom! I know that my students always need a bit of practice with their math facts. Using new apps helps to keep their interest up and each app offers a different challenge! Do you have any go-to math apps for multiplication?

Link up below with your own Website or App recommendations, Tech Tips, Tutorials, or anything else tech-related! We can't wait to learn from you!

This site has some directions on how to make different kinds of airplanes. Try some of their ideas, or some of your own, and see which one flies the farthest!

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Did you learn how to make it from a book? Or maybe it was from the kid you shared a desk with in the third grade?

We tested a few designs, and one of them really stood out as a winner (I'll share it below). You'll have to test some, too, and see which one flies the furthest.

Well guess what? Today I'm sharing links to instructions for making paper airplanes that go far and actually work, along with some ideas on how to help kids invent their own paper airplane designs.

So let's get started with How to Make Paper Airplanes while building Design Skills...

A few sets of instructions for making paper airplanes. You can get these from a book or download instructions from the internet (see recommended links below)

Copy paper. Thinner paper is easier for children to fold.

Markers (optional)

Scissors (optional)

A clear table

Step One: Select a Design

We looked through all of our designs, picked one to start with, and my daughter and I sat down and followed the directions for the first airplane. If you've ever made origami, it's the same approach. Most of the steps were easy enough for her four-year old hands and mind, but I had to help her with a few of the trickier folds.

If you find instructions that are too complicated for you, then skip them and find another plane to make.

Step Two: Teach someone else how to make a plane

Once we got the hang of it, N thought our six-year old neighbor would enjoy this project and we invited him over to join us. Either that or misery loves company.

We each started with another sheet of paper and while we folded, the kids educated each other on hamburger and hot dog folds. If you don't have a neighbor to teach, teach a parent, babysitter, or grandparent. This step does wonders for building confidence.

Step Three: Iterate and Invent New Planes

Once that first airplane was complete, it was interesting to see where the kids took the project next. My daughter, a designer to the core, got busy decorating her plane with markers. Her friend, a tinkerer at heart who has a soft spot for Legos, began iterating on the design to improve it!

As we folded, he asked me questions like, "On your Eagle, how did you make the wing tips?" And then he proceeded to invent his own series of planes with pointed noses, flat noses, and wing tips.

When my daughter jumped in to help him, I commented that they were iterating. I actually said, "Hey you guys are iterating! Do you know that word? It means that you're building a lot of planes to test new ideas and in order to figure out how to make it better. Can you say 'iterate?'" And then of course, they obliged me.

I swear, the teacher thing will probably never leave my soul! Do you ever find yourself in that mode?

Step Four: Take it outdoors

They tested their planes in the house and once they amassed a small fleet of planes, I heard, "Let's have an airplane show!!" So we took it outdoors to see what the planes could do.

Our friend guessed that the pointy-nosed planes would get more distance and said he was "amazed that the flat-nosed Eagle flew the best."

All in all, we spent a good hour on this project, and in the end not only did these kids have fun bonding and playing together, but they came away with some new design skills, tools for developing an innovator's mindset, and good ol' fine motor skill practice.

A question for you...

Did you ever make paper airplanes as a child? Where did you learn how to make them? And how did they fly?

"Sheppard offers everything from early math to pre-algebra. The lessons include interactive activities to practice concepts. Students can shoot fruit, pop balloons, and even play math man (the math version of pac man!). Fractions, place value, money, and basic operations are some of the areas that are covered. Check it out at https://www.sheppardsoftware.com/math.htm. "
--Shannon Jakeman , sjakeman.blogspot.com

"Online math games, like the ones that you'll find for free at Sheppard Software, provide a valuable opportunity for children to learn a great deal while they're having fun. The games at Sheppard Software are well written, interactive and very fun to play.

It can be very difficult for parents to find productive and worthwhile activities for children on the Internet; however fun online math games do offer a wonderful alternative.

This free section of Sheppard Software was written for children. Mostly all of the material you'll find at the site is completely free for kids to use. These fun online math games cover all of the math fundamentals, including early math, basic and mixed operations, fractions, pre-algebra, dollars & cents and place value. While teachers often use worksheets to solidify the math concepts learned in the classroom, these sort of games actually have the same educational impact on the child, and the format of the examples as an exciting game keeps the child engaged, interested and coming back for more.

From the main page parents or children will find a simple and easy to navigate menu featuring the different levels of math games and the various math concepts that are available. Children from pre-k up to 8th grade will find fun online math games that teach important math skills that are appropriate for their age level.

Sheppard Software offers a couple of cute games for the youngest math students. In this game, called Bugabaloo Addition, children are shown a number of "bug shoes" on the left and the right. The game asks the child to add the two groups of shoes together, and then pick the bug with the correct number printed on it. This game teaches addition through a graphical display that lets the child see and count the shoes. With the numbers right underneath, children easily make the association between the visual cues and the act of addition.

For slightly older kids, there are a number of very popular arcade-style "popup" math games. In these games, the child is presented with a math problem and must find the creature that's holding the correct answer and smack it on the head with the hammer. The comical expression the creature makes and the sound effects make this game so fun that children will forget that they're learning math! "
