Memorize Multiplication Facts (Products over 45)

This Common Core operations and algebraic thinking lesson covers how to memorize multiplication facts. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for Common Core assessments. In this lesson, students will practice the multiplication facts of numbers with products over 45 by a combination of reading aloud and writing each fact many times in horizontal and vertical formats. In addition to the lesson, Independent Practice provides practice with random problems for each number, while periodic review provides practice with random problems for all the numbers together. The intent of this lesson is to provide additional practice for the multiplication facts that are more difficult for students to remember.
