Factoring and Multiples - Fun and Memorable Lessons and Activities

Creating magical activities for struggling math students is one of my favorite things to do. Teaching fun memory strategies, hooking techniques, color-coded steps, drawing strategies, and color implementation can be the secret weapon to igniting joy in the learning process.  
Mathemagic: Magical Math Instruction cover featuring multisensory strategies for teaching factoring and multiples, created by Dr. Erica Warren
Over the years, I have found that many of my students have trouble with factoring and multiples. As a result, I have created a new publication to make the learning process both enjoyable and memorable for both the teachers and the students. Now, teachers have all the tools that they need to teach these concepts in a multisensory and effective way. Students can learn the concept once and continue to remember the process over time.

What’s My Method?

  • teaching factoring using Dr. Warren's Mathemagic strategy with a colorful factory.All of the following strategies are integrated into my publication, Mathemagic Magical Math Instruction: Factoring and Multiples. Memory Strategies: Implementing memory strategies helps students encode the new material.
  • Hooking Techniques: Presenting hooking techniques is ideal for anxious learners who tend to forget what they know in testing situations. This strategy enables learners to see the answer in the question.
  • Sequence of Steps: Breaking down math computations into a series offers a step-by-step approach.
  • Drawing Strategies: Offering drawing activities allows creative learners to come up with their own, self-generated strategies.
  • Color Implementation: Providing coloring activities helps to make the learning process fun and relaxing.
  • Game Integration: Creating fun, interactive games, as well as suggested kinesthetic learning activities, allows students to practice in groups.

Ready-Made Materials at Affordable Prices
