Multiply Multiples of 10

March has come!!  And hopefully with it, WARM weather!  I'm in the Midwest and am VERY tired of the COLD days!!  Here is something I threw together to help my students with Multiplying Multiples of 10.  Since we definitely have cabin fever, I added in some movement with this activity.  Students do things like crab walk to the next task card, or do 5 squats before moving on.

Go HERE to check this FREEBIE out!  It won't be free for long!

I hope your staying warm in this weather and let's hope with a little Irish Luck, warm weather will be soon approaching!  :)

Not a Snow Day, but a COLD DAY!!

You know it's cold when the Gov. shuts down schools across your state!  I am sitting here with 2 shirts, jeans, 2 socks, slippers and a blanket on and I am still chilly in this -50 degree weather.  It makes for a good day to get some school work done though!

I start working on our multiplication facts right after Christmas.  Each day we take a test.  I give them 3 minutes for 40 problems.  It gets to feel a little tedious, and the students start to lose motivation.  When my husband taught 3rd grade he did the banana split incentive with his class.  I started doing it and added a few details, such as the poster and my own tests.  Today I worked at compiling it all.

I finished a multiplication incentive pack that I have posted on TPT.  For the next 24 hours it will be 20% off!!  

It includes timed tests for 0-12 facts and an incentive program to use through out the process.  Students are working toward earning all the fixin's for a banana split sundae.  On the last day of school we celebrate and they get their banana split with whatever toppings they have earned.

I guess the cold weather, prompted a chilly treat thought!  :)  I hope you are staying warm this winter, and now we have something to look forward to at the end of the year.  A CHILLY treat!!  :)
