Goal: What are multiplication facts?
Here are the flowers that bloomed! They have 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 in their centers.
We will use these flowers to create multiplication facts. Multiplication facts are multiplication sentences that we can practice. We will practice them enough times that they will be easy to remember!
This is a multiplication fact flower. We will multiply the number in the center by the other numbers to create multiplication facts.
The number in the center is the first number. It is the number of groups. Each small petal has the second number. It is the number in each group. We will write the answer in the big petal. Then we will do it again with each small and big petal.
We can write the facts we create in a table like this:
Let’s try it!
1 x 1 = 1. That means 1 goes in the big petal behind the 1, like this:
Now we can use the petal with a 2 in it. What is 1 x 2? Use any strategy to help you find the answer. Click to see!
1 x 2 = 2. 2 goes in the big petal behind the 2.
What is 1 x 3? Use any strategy to help you find the answer. Click to see!
1 x 3 = 3. 3 goes in the big petal behind the 3.
What is 1 x 4? Use any strategy to help you find the answer. Click to see!
1 x 4 = 4. 4 goes in the big petal behind the 4.
What is 1 x 5? Use any strategy to help you find the answer. Click to see!
Here is a table with the facts we created. Each multiplication sentence starts with 1. Then the sentences contain the second numbers and the answers we found.
What is any number times 1?
We can use the flowers to help us remember multiplication facts!
