teaching multiplication

We do skip counting every day for a good month before we start our multiplication unit.We do timed tests every day. Students must complete 30 problems in one min. I modify for sped students. I give one "Free Friday" | where students can take as long as they want, but they are only allowed to miss one problem. I use multiplication sundaes. I know many other teachers are against this due to the obesity problem in our country, but it really works wonders in my third grade room and I am having great success with it. I have also made several games. I made multiplication checkerboards and other games |

for students to play at recess time or during what little free time they get.Students make two sets of flashcards -one to keep in their desk and one set to take home. I also like to let me play muliplication games on the computer. Check out this website for more ideas:
