Description
Multiplication Differentiated Stations
These differentiated multiplication math stations were designed to be used with the M-A-T-H model (Math Facts, At Your Seat, Teacher’s Choice, Hands-On) but they can absolutely be used with any workshop model! They are perfect for 3rd and 4th graders, and can even be used with 5th graders who need extra practice with these skills. (This set focuses on whole numbers, not decimals.)
*****************************************************************************
HOW DO I IMPLEMENT THEM?
You can read about how math workshop runs in my room, or buy the guide to Launching Math Workshop. **In the guide, there are also starter stations included.**
*****************************************************************************
WHAT’S INCLUDED?
All of the stations include teacher suggestions and student directions (if needed). Answer keys are also given. Please remember, these stations are great to use all year long for a review, not just when you are teaching multiplication. There aren’t any activities specifically made for Teacher’s Choice since you can decide what you want in this station. I have provided suggestions for each station as well as differentiated versions. You could also use some of these activities in small groups- the possibilities are endless! Adapt these to fit YOUR needs!
Please look at the preview!
