I can remember having so much trouble mastering my Math multiplication facts in Elementary school due to my weak memory for non-meaningful information. I cringed when Sister Mary called me to the "back table" to see "my growth" for the month. Needless to say this still happens today for a lot of students. Many of my students take SOOOO long to learn their multiplication facts.
I was just tipped off (by a 3rd grader:) about Oriental Trading Company selling these wonderful pencils pictured here. They have the multiplication facts wrapped around the pencil for easy access. The easier facts (1,2,3's) are at the bottom so sharpening isn't a big deal. What a great independent reference tool!! 24 pencils for $3.99................
