Description:
I write multiplication facts on Post-it® Notes and stick them to Burger King Crowns. Students wear them throughout the day. Students learn their facts while enjoying this fun activity. It appeals to their interests: they love anything post-it and it provides a new twist to a mastering a task that can be extremely grueling. Maybe we can forever eliminate the dreary task of writing those times tables hundreds of times like we have been accustomed to for far too long! This activity lends itself well to so many other possibilities! Numerous facts can be incorporated from all subject areas.
