How to Make Multiplication Flash Cards?

Multiplication Flashcards are effective, affordable, and easily replaceable - they remain a popular choice for parents and teachers that have to introduce children to the basics of multiplication. Moreover, this type of instrument the kids can use in the absence of a parent or teacher that helps them out - one child can hold the card showing their friend or classmate the multiplication while the back of the card contains the solution allowing both children to memorize the material. Here is how you can make customized Multiplication Flash Cards:

  1. Opt for a thicker material - regular paper is enough for kids that will study multiplication in a home learning space but if the goal is to carry cards everywhere for practice, cardstock or laminated paper will be a better choice . You should also look into reusable index cards - you get to customize them to your liking and later take the process of math learning to the next level with more challenging formulas and exercises.

  2. Determine how many numbers you need to include in your flashcards - it is advised to go to ten or twelve for starters . Write down the multiplications and leave enough space for the right solution; alternatively, the right answer can be put on the back of the card. Consider using colorful pens, markers, and highlighters - whether the child is going to kindergarten or you are teaching an elementary school student, the visual component is crucial to keep their attention for extended periods of time since kids tend to be distracted while memorizing multiplications.

  3. Make sure the flashcards are not lost especially if the kid is taking them to school - you can put them in the box or connect the pieces together with an easy-to-use fastening device . To keep the cards in order, you may make small holes in the corner of each card and secure them with a ring or a thread. Check whether the kid can use the device in question safely before you sort out the cards.

  4. Apart from multiplications the child is supposed to know by heart, you can teach them tricks and tips that will facilitate the task for them . For instance, tell them about the rule of nines - every number from one to ten multiplied by nine produces a number that ends with a descending number. This will let the kid that makes their first steps in speed math digest the material with ease.
