**Perfect preparation for the Year 4 Multiplication Check. ** This is a terrific way to introduce a multiplication fact, one at a time, without overwhelming the pupils! Students will go through multiple strategies to learn, understand, and master each fact. These can be stuck in children’s books or printed and laminated for repeat use/use with concrete resources or manipulatives. This is a great resource for both pupils just beginning to learn their multiplication facts as well as those who may need further intervention.
