How Print Multiplication Worksheet Help Kids Learn

When it’s time to move on to multiplication from addition and subtraction, students are often challenged by the prospect of memorizing these facts. Printable multiplication worksheets can help kids learn.

Learning multiplication facts can be a daunting task, especially when you think about the many facts that have to be committed to long-term memory. Instead of jumping right in and moving straight to memorization, start with the basics that relate addition to multiplication. If five plus five plus five equals 15, explain the transition of multiplying five times three to equal 15.

You can also make arrays to illustrate multiplication facts to help children visualize the problems.

Start Simple

When it’s time to start focusing on memorizing multiplication facts, start simple. Multiplying by zero doesn’t get any easier, nor does multiplying by one. Teach the basics of multiplication by having kids memorize these easiest facts.

This might be the time to introduce a multiplication table to allow kids to see how they can find multiplication products by tracing horizontal rows and vertical columns to the point they meet.

Using Multiplication Printables

Multiplication tables and charts are an ideal way to help kids visualize how multiplication facts fit together.

Printable tables will include all of the facts for each number. For example, with the four times facts, the table will begin with four times zero and will list all of the facts through the last one, four times 12. Kids can spend time reviewing each fact to begin memorizing.

A printable multiplication chart will have numbers one through 10 along the top and vertically along the left side of the chart with a grid making up the chart. In each grid space, the product is shown where the column and row intersect. For example, the top row of the chart will show the one facts, and the second row of the chart will show the two facts. Printing a multiplication chart can help kids with memorization.

Where to Find Printable Multiplication Pages

Many websites have printable multiplication pages that you can download and print off for students to use as they learn. Some charts and tables are customizable, while others are preformatted and you simply download them as-is.

Games of Math Multiplication

Kids are usually happiest to learn when they can have fun as they do it. Using games as a teaching resource can help kids practice multiplication facts while they enjoy a game at the same time. Games might be speed challenges to see how quickly kids can enter the right answer to multiplication facts. Games might also be target practice with kids needing to shoot the target with the correct answer. Another fun game involves a multiplication fact appearing and a number of balloons with numbers on them. Your child would need to pop the balloon with the correct answer.
