Multiplication: You're Teaching It Wrong (and you really don't have to...)
Multiplication seems like such a simple topic to teach: we show our students a few examples, like 6 plates of 5 cookies, and next thing you know, we're moving on to memorizing the multiplication facts. Bad Idea.
Multiplication is one of the trickiest topics we teach in mathematics, and the things we leave out mean that our students will pay later when they struggle with topics like ratio, proportion and other types of problem solving in their later years. You must prevent this from happening, a

Visual Problem Solving For Struggling Readers: 3rd - 5th grade
Greetings Phrens,
This is an experiment for a third grade teacher who is struggling to engage two dyslexic students in the process of answering mathematical story problems. She showed me a set of story problems and described how a teacher had to sit next to the students and read the problems to the students, who then solved them.
I thought about this and stated that this seemed like a very hard way to engage these students in problem solving, because the task was really more focused on reading
