Multiplication Facts: 3s and 6s

Multiplication Facts: 3s and 6s

Today we will learn strategies for remembering our 3s and 6s.

Let's start with our 3s!

3's can be a sinch if you know your 2's!

• For example, take the problem 3x6. If I separate the 3 into 2 and 1, now I have two problems. 2x6 and 1x6.

• because I know my 2s and my 1s, this should be really easy. 2x6=12 and 1x6=6.

• add the 12 and 6 together to get 18!

Now let's learn about our 6s facts!

We can use our knowledge of our 3s to learn our 6s.

• if we know our threes facts, then all we need to do to figure out our 6s is double our 3s.

• for example, if you have the problem 6x4, we know that 3x4 is 12 and it takes two threes to make six.

• 12+12 is 24, so 6x4=24.

Now let's practice some of our 6s facts!
