The Struggle with Multiplication Facts
Third grade teachers everywhere are consumed with the thought of multiplication facts. Songs, chants, skip counting, pictures, flashcards, videos, the list goes on and on! What is the best way to have students master their multiplication facts? We try these different strategies with the hope that something will stick! Teachers also see some of their students “pass their 6’s” to only have them forget three weeks later! Uggghh!
Fourth grade teachers don’t have it any easier. How are we supposed to teach double digit multiplication and long division if our students still do not have their multiplication facts mastered? After sixteen years of teaching fourth grade, we decided that we needed to find a solution! We needed a way for our students to practice their multiplication facts without having it consume our day!
The Solution to Mastering Multiplication Facts
We know that our students love using brochures in the classroom. One teacher even said, “There is magic in the engagement of lifting a flap!” We couldn’t agree more! Students love “lifting the flap” to see what activity is next! Insert lightbulb moment here and you now see our Multiplication Brochures being used everywhere! These Multiplication Brochures are our BEST sellers for a reason!
Multiplication Brochure Bundle
For each fact family, there are three brochures included. That’s a total of 33 Multiplication Brochures for facts families 2-12! With the Multiplication Brochure Bundle, we also include 3 brochures covering mixed facts! That’s 36 Multiplication Brochures! Each Multiplication Brochure has various activities that allow students to master their multiplication facts in an engaging way. Check out some of the activities below!

amazing system to support students’ to learn their multiplication!
I think this would be perfect as an early finisher!
I just downloaded the freebie, so I’ll be trying it out this week with my 3rd graders.
I love the multiplication brochures! I can’t wait to give it a try with my struggling third graders.
This is SO fun! As a Title 1 Math Teacher, I’m always looking for resources to make math more fun and enjoyable. This would be great to have for my 3rd graders, and even 4th graders, to help them learn and practice their multiplication facts!
This looks very engaging and something my students who struggle with facts will enjoy. Thank you!
This looks like a great morning work option. I was going to use a facts drill sheet but this looks much more engaging.
This would be a great morning work option. I was going to give them fact drill sheets but I think they would like this better.
These multiplication brochures would be a great way for students to practice their skills!
These look fun and engaging!

Looks like a great supplement especially for the 11s and 12s.
I just purchased your bundle. Where did you purchase the brochure holders?
Amazon! You can find them in our “Shop” section under “Brochures”
I just purchased your brochures and super excited to implement them this year! I would LOVE to hear how teachers are using them in the classroom. Homework, morning work, centers, everyone at their own pace with some sort of math facts system??? I am trying to wrap my brain around HOW to use these in the class. I do not see my kiddos choosing for themselves for practice…so I think it has to be more if me handing out to them. Who has gotten creative with these brochures and how are you using them? TIA!
