Maybe that provides them with too many options though. Maybe after a certain point it switches to subtraction so that it's not another choice but just a rule.<br /><br />I suppose you could also compete with a chess timer or something to help improve their speed with multiplication as well. For those teachers that would normally do some kind of timed drill, doing this to a timer would be much more fun.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
