Good mathematicians look for patterns because patterns show them shortcuts.
Multiple Songs
Have you ever had a song stuck in your head? If you have, you’ll know how long the tune and words can linger there. Why not use the power of songs to remember important things like multiplication facts. You could sing them while you ride in the car or when you skip rope. You could even use them to annoy your brother or sister or show off for you mom and dad. There are a number of different versions for the skip counting song. Here are the ones I like to use with my students.
