Math Fact Challenge

To help their students master multiplication facts, Dena and Nikki have a weekly math fact challenge. They line the students in rows by class, show them a multiplication fact on a flashcard, and the student who states the answer the quickest wins that round and gets to remain in line. The winning class is the last one standing. Read their thoughts about this interactive activity and view the competition in action!

“The math challenge has really encouraged my students to master their multiplication facts. They are excited about the game each Friday. Our students do a really great job of supporting each other during the challenge, it's a really fun learning opportunity.”
         -Nikki Van Sickle

“This was such an amazing idea.  My kids are really low in math, but this has stepped up their responsibility to learn their math facts.”
