Multiplication Baseball

One of our goals in 4th grade is to increase each student's "fact power."  I want students to have an instant recall of all the multiplication facts.  This ability will help them become faster and more efficient mathematicians.  Fractions, division, number stories, life - they all involve multiplication.  To increase our fact power, we've been playing lots of games in class.  One of the kids' favorites was Multiplication Baseball.  If you would like your own copy this game board, I'll be glad to send one home.  All you have to do is leave a comment below, and I'll send one home with you (or if you're a parent - your child).  Here are some pictures of our kids hitting the ball out of the park.
