Today we learned about the Property of Zero and One in multiplication. Last year I made
these charts. They were much cuter last year, but I made them all by myself. This year I decided to involve my students a little more. Each student wrote a multiplication sentence on the zero and one (with smelly markers which made this a highlight of their year, ha!). Did they mess up? YEP! Are all of the equations correct? NOPE! But, we are going to use that as a teachable moment tomorrow!!
I also let my students choose how they wanted to color code their math facts. It’s amazing how much more engaged they are when they have the freedom on something so small! I’ll do whatever it takes at this point, ha!
