Growing up with Eureka: Learning to Multiply, Part II

This "Growing Up With Eureka" video is Part II of a three part series on how to start the process of learning to multiply with your child/students. To see Part I, go here:

By "start the process" I mean we show ways to learn multiplication facts by 2, by 10, by 5, by 3 and by 4 using skip counting and unit math. We don't show in this series how to teach the six most troublesome facts: 6x7, 6x8, 6x9, 7x8, 7x9, 8x9, or how to use the commutative property to cut the number of facts in half.

The three videos only show the major "lampposts" along the way towards learning to multiply using these methods. To reach each lamppost takes lots of joyful counting and visual activities that we embedded into the Eureka Math/EngageNY Curriculum in grades K-2.

The major lamppost we see in this video is skip counting. Again, the Eureka Math curriculum has many activities designed to help your child (or students) learn how to skip count easily in fun ways.

Since this video only covers what it looks like when your students/child has reached the lamppost, I also encourage viewers to make and reply to comments about their experiences in the comment section at:
