Ideas for home
- Practice the tens and nines facts together. Encourage your child to explain how knowing the tens fact makes the nines fact easier to solve. “I know that 5 × 10 is 50, and 50 − 5 is 45, so 9 × 5 is 45.”
- Create arrays with pennies to illustrate 10 × ___ and then cover one row to illustrate 9 × ___ .
- Encourage a self-check with nines fact pattern. Say, “When the digits of the total are added together, do they equal 9?” In 51, 5 + 1 equals 6, so 51 can’t be a multiple of 9.
- Notice when data is displayed in graphs in the newspaper, on websites, or in magazines. Interpret the graph together and ask questions that can be answered by looking at the graph.
