Differentiating Instruction for Learning Multiplication

Technology Instructional Resources:

1.   Squidoo.com: a first through eight grade math website providing highly interactive, skill level adaptive, bright and colorful websites that brings math learning alive meting the diverse needs of each learner in the classroom.

2.   Thinking blocks: Model Your Math Problems: This week as I prepared my lesson on multiplication, I found this excellent multiplication site for student third grade and above.  It uses audio and visual approach to learning multiplication supported by problem solving steps, ideas from a math tutor and the ability to build models for solving a problem.  This will be an excellent resource for supporting the diverse learners in my classroom. 

3.   Multiplication.com: this website is appropriate for all students in elementary school or middle school students needing math foundational skills, provides diverse activities for helping teach multiplication skills. As I seek to provide various approaches in teaching my students multiplication, this great variety of activities will allow students choices meeting their learning style needs.  Classroom games


4.   GlobalClassroom.org: this site provides math and reading resources for students in elementary school.  In developing resources for my math lesson in multiplication, I found teaching approaches for implementing technology into the process of learning multiplication. These tools provided a interactive game or challenge while building valuable multiplication skills.  Multiplication Hidden Pictures.
