Learning Multiplication Activity

January 10, 2019 by Jaimi Erickson 2 Comments

Ready to have the ENERGY to be the best mom you can be? Get started! Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome back! Did you already get started here?

Learning multiplication activity helps school age kids learn their multiplication facts.

Sometimes learning new skills can be very difficult for children. Up until now my girls haven’t really struggled with anything in school. That all changed when my oldest daughter was learning multiplication and division.

She was having a hard time memorizing the multiplication facts. 

For whatever reason she just couldn’t get it. We tried everything. We tried multiplication cards, quizzing her, using manipulatives. No matter what we did she just couldn’t remember the multiplication facts she needed to know.

I racked my brain trying to come up with ideas that would help her with the simple number process of multiplication and division. 

It finally hit me that a multiplication table that was simple to use, easy to make and was interactive for my daughter might just do the trick.

This DIY learning multiplication activity is a great way for kids to learn through repetition as well as being able to quiz themselves without your help. It also helps them gain the ability to better understand the multiplication process.

Learning Multiplication and Division Activity

Learning multiplication activity helps school age kids learn their multiplication facts.

Materials you’ll need:

Poster board or butcher paper

Scissors

Small post it notes

Pen or a sharpie

Ruler or straight edge

Learning multiplication activity helps school age kids learn their multiplication facts.

Instructions:

Cut out a rectangle using your paper or poster board

Next use your ruler or straightedge to draw 13 lines horizontally and 13 vertically. That should give you enough boxes to go from 0 to 12 on both sides.

Go through and label zero through 12 on the top of the page and 0 to 12 running down the left side.

Then fill each box with the corresponding answer.

After all the numbers were filled in I had my daughter take the small Post-it notes and cover up each answer.

Then the real fun started. She was able to take a Post-it note off one at a time and quiz herself.

Believe my shock when she started actually enjoying studying multiplication!

Within two weeks she knew all her multiplication facts from 0 to 12!

This easy DIY learning multiplication activity can also be made into a division activity, which we will try next.

This learning multiplication activity was super simple to make and easy to use, in fact I didn’t have to buy anything to make it.

Let me know if you have a chance to make this activity and how it works for your child. You can check out more School Age Learning Activities too.

Has your child ever struggled with learning multiplication or division? What tips or tricks did you use to help them overcome that struggle?

Heather lives in Florida with her husband, two girls and two pups. She is a lover of most things in life, too many to name here without scaring you, but a few include working out, learning new recipes, Pinterest, organizing (yes, it’s true!), home decor and learning to lead a more minimal and purposeful life.

She started Just Becoming Me as a venture to better understand herself and what will lead her towards a more fulfilling life. Her motto is: “We only have one life, and I want to learn to live mine in a way that gets me excited to jump out of bed.”

My kids climbing trees, playing with friends and g My kids climbing trees, playing with friends and getting to socialize is priceless right now.

There are two worlds developing lately. Here in NC other than a wearing a mask now and then, life is pretty normal. This is our world. 

I am so thankful. Praying for normal to get back to your area soon. 💛 Life is better lived with others.

As far as our home and homeschool, 2021 has been a As far as our home and homeschool, 2021 has been a dream so far! 

Kids are eager to learn and ask for more, we have a system down, and I am even getting rest time in the evening after the kitchen is cleaned up. My husband and I get time together while the kids are still awake which is important for them to see. 

It has taken some realization of truth to create this peace and balance. Teaching my kids is a full time job. I am giving it that time this year and it is making all the difference. #shed #deadweightisgone #focusonthepresent #focusonfamily #thisismywork #homeschoolingmom #homeschoolingmama #homeschoolisafulltimejob #intentionalhomeschooling #intentionalmotherhood #intentionalmama #wifeandmother #homemakingmotivation #schoolathome #lifebalance
How long have you known your spouse? This guy an How long have you known your spouse? 

This guy and I met our senior year of high school. What a journey we were in for and did not ever realize! 

•4 kids + 1 miscarriage
•Navigating long distance relationship while dating, engaged and married
•Working to build faith as the center and focus of “us”
•Loving each other at our ugliest moments
•Building our home team for the long term

Every time the world feels heavy, chaotic, and strange, our marriage is a safe place. It makes our home calm amongst the storm of global politics. 

I have grown content with our imperfections- because there are much bigger problems to navigate in the world...am I right?! 😳

That brings me so much peace. 

Loving not only how well we work together but also the ways we still need to improve. That is where I am in my marriage. Grateful to have so much history with this guy. It fills my tank for all the years we have ahead of us to navigate as well.

It does not matter if you are a man or a woman, yo It does not matter if you are a man or a woman, you can not do it all well. 

Hi, my name is Jaimi and sometimes I deliver truth that cuts to the heart. 👌😉

Women have been fed a lie that they can and need to juggle it all. I have learned to juggle. Eventually balls fall. 

As I took on more because I was told all that mattered was my mindset, I inevitably had to set aside the tasks that God called me to do first. We never take on more and more and more and stay in balance without setting aside more than we should.

It is not a matter of mindset, it is a matter of priorities.

Have you heard of the “one thing every day”? Many make that a clean kitchen, workout completed or devotional time. My one this is my family. If I focus on them each day I feel successful. 

In my home there is peace. The world is in chaos, power has become currency, and morals have fallen away. But “me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”

It has nothing to do with gender. No one can take on something new without setting aside something they were working on already. 

Peace and order in my home is worth it. I am setting aside the things that bring chaos into my life and home. I am only focusing on the things that serve God here. 

What have you done to focus on success with completing your priorities this year? Have you made small changes to get there or large leaps?

Today we took the Christmas decorations down. It m Today we took the Christmas decorations down. It marked the real start of 2021 for us. 

For some reason I am feeling ready for Spring cleaning. Funny enough, as I was cleaning out some flower pots that had gone a little stagnant over the colder weeks, I saw shoots! My plants think Spring is on its way-it has been warm here over the last few days. 

Being greeted by this view as we were piling into the van this morning, felt energizing. 

My steps heading in to 2021 are more careful, pragmatic. It feels good to feel on course, back to what matters most, and have zero guilt for what I will put on the back burner this year to stay focused on giving my family my best.

Anyone else having about 3 Christmases with shippi Anyone else having about 3 Christmases with shipping challenges delaying packages? 🤣🤣

With family all long distance + the twins birthday 2 days after Christmas we end up with about 4 gift opening sessions over the course of Christmas week. I see no complaints from these kids. 😆 

How did package shipping go for you this year? Do you plan ahead for shipping gifts? 

We are definitely grateful for giving family. #christmasweek #giftopening #givinggifts #moregifts #feelingloved #holiday2020 #familytime2020

A few ornaments have impact for other reasons. They beautify our tree while impacting the lives of female crafters in parts of the world that need to be lifted up. This new addition has a backstory. Swipe right to read it. 🌟💜 I am blessed to support the @younglivingfoundation 

I love the memories of my tree. So many favorite ornaments. 

Which of your ornaments are your favorite?
