Multiplication Groups: My first year of teaching a colleague introduced me to multiplication/division groups. She had found that many students came to 4th and 5th grade without a lot of knowledge about multiplication. It wasn't enough to just memorize the facts, they had to know how to do multiple digit multiplication and division. She had haphazardly assembled sheets to create groups but I took it a step farther and developed my own. [I never developed the division ones because I found once my students got a good grasp on the multi-step multiplication, they didn't need the intervention with division.] Here are the sheets to implement this in your classroom if you'd like. (I just kept track of the levels on a big homework chart from the teacher store.)


Please note that even though they are called "groups", these activities are done independently by students. The "group" just designates where they are with their multiplication skills (like an independent reading level). I have had a ton of success with these at 4th and 5th grade. Students can do them for morning work, after small groups in math or as they finish other activities early.
