Mini Math Lesson- x0, x1, x10

Guess what we're working on?! Multiplication facts!

So far, we have mastered, that's right, mastered, our 0, 1, and 10 facts! I know you're impressed!

It helps that we came up with some chants and motions thanks to our SIOP training. :) Here is our chart to remind us of our rules. Mock the pictures all you want. I'm a horrible artist.

Everything in pink symbolizes a motion being made.
Here are some videos of what these chants look like- thank you Ms. Roach!

x0- When you multiply by 0, the answer is 0!

x1- When you multiply by 1, the answer stays the same! (one hand out- showing that we stop at the number being multiplied, don't go any further!)


x10- When you multiply by 10, you add a 0 on the end! (I explained that you add a 0 to the end of the number being multiplied)


We were doing so well with our chants and facts that we just had to share our knowledge! So, we called in Ms. Harper and Mrs. Webb to come check us out!

Watch here:

Or here:

 Needless to say, they were impressed! We also impressed Mrs. Blowe and Mrs. Custer when they visited our class. :)

Ms. Harper was so impressed that she agreed to announce all of my students who made a 100% on their practice sheet during the afternoon announcements. Would you like to see all of my students who were announced?

Here they are!

WE. ROCKED. IT. OUT!

I couldn't be more proud of my students! Tomorrow, we master x2!
