Calling all third (and maybe fourth) grade teachers! Are you ready for a FREEBIE that is going to transform the way to manage multiplication fact fluency in your classroom? You are going to love what we have just for YOU! Let’s get started!
Multiplication Fact Fluency FREEBIE #1: An Interactive and Engaging File Folder Activity
The key to fact fluency is getting students to take ownership of their learning! This file folder activity is an interactive and engaging way for students to record their multiplication fact fluency!
On the cover, students color in each number as they show mastery of each fact family.
On the inside left, students make a list of the facts they still need to study and the facts they have mastered! Students use pencil so it is a working and living document! They absolutely love moving their multiplication facts from one side to the other!
On the inside right, students highlight the multiples as they master each multiplication fact. (We will go over how they master them further down in this post).
On the back, students create a multiplication fact cheat sheet! Students fill in a blank multiplication chart and fill in their facts so that if they need some help, they can just grab their multiplication folder!
This Multiplication Fact File Folder Freebie covers fact families 0, 1, 5, 10 and 11. Try it out! If this is something that works for you and your students, check out our complete Multiplication Fact Fluency Bundle HERE!

Multiplication Fact Fluency FREEBIE #2: Multiplication Speed Drills for Fact Families 0, 1, 5, 11 & 12’s!
Students need to demonstrate their fact fluency. We need to know what they know! When students are handed a sheet with 100 facts and are asked to complete them in 5 minutes, it can create anxiety. In our classrooms, we give 50 facts and then give them 4-5 minutes depending on the class. When they only have 50 to complete, it seems to be more manageable for them and if we are being honest, it’s less for us to grade! Grading? That brings us to the next AMAZING PART OF THIS FREEBIE!!!!
This Multiplication Fact Fluency Drill FREEBIE allows teachers to cut out answer keys and lay them over the drills for quick grading! Tip: Laminate the keys for durability! Prep once and save HOURS of grading! Go home earlier and RELAX! Want to see how they work? Check out the video below to see it in action!

Multiplication Fact Fluency FREEBIE #3: Fluency Strips!
Every teacher is different and so is every student. Students need to demonstrate their fact fluency, so that’s why there are multiplication fluency strips! Did you notice that there are 3 versions? This provides easy differentiation! Set A places the fact family at the beginning, Set B has them all mixed up and Set C places them at the end!
In our classrooms, we use Set A and C as practice. We will grab a set a quiz them in line or around the classroom. Sometimes we have students quiz each other too!
Set B is reserved for quizzing students individually. Depending on time, we will give students a drill, as mentioned above, or we will pull them one-on-one and test their fact fluency. Another reason we use these fact fluency strips is when we notice a particular student struggling with the drills. If there is anxiety or they have spent an excessive amount of time doing one fact family, we will pull them over for a one-on-one.
This Multiplication Fact Fluency Strip Freebie covers fact families 0, 1, 5, 10 and 11. Try it out! If this is something that works for you and your students, check out our complete Multiplication Fact Fluency Bundle HERE!

As a homeschool mom, these are perfect for my boys. I can use them with all them at the same time no matter what grade level they are on.
These resources look amazing! My students definitely need support and practice with their facts. Thanks!!
I bought the division brochures when they were on sale and I love them. I would love to have the multiplications ones also.
These multiplication brochures would be extremely helpful to my exceptional education third grade learners.
Many thanks for this opportunity !
Thank you for these resources! As a fourth grade teacher, I know the importance of math fact fluency. We go beyond knowing the math facts and apply them to harder problems. I used the fact fluency drills to test my students’ knowledge from third grade at the beginning of the year. These resources can help me review multiplication facts with those students who still struggle!
