The author discusses some unique and non-routine ways of developing the multiplication facts. (CT)

Outlines a pattern for multiplication of fractions which facilitates the solution of a large class of problems. Beginning with the rate pair motion, a sequence of interrelated ideas are suggested that should help develop ability in problem solving in both relatively common and in more technical situations.

Early experience with grouping objects is valuable for later understanding of and work with place value, division, and multiplication. Examples are drawn from the Developing Mathematical Processes Curriculum Project at the Wisconsin Research and Development Center for Cognitive Learning. (RS)

A description is given of a game used to give a continuous review of multiplication facts and illustrate certain properties. (MP)

Detailed instructions are given for presenting a number of activities that serve to tie measurement and multiplication together. The activities involve length, weight, area, volume, and capacity. (MP)

This study investigated two methods used to teach multidigit multiplication to fourth-grade students: the lattice method and the distributive method. Classes from four schools were randomly assigned so that the two treatment groups contained two each or urban, rural and inner city classrooms. A series of 15 lessons was prepared for each treatment…

Cassette tapes were prepared to provide drill in multiplication facts. Pre-test and post-test scores were recorded. (MP)
