More Than Just Conversation Hearts

Valentine's Day Math Multiplication Color-by-Numbers

For the Valentine's Day math multiplication color-by-numbers, students are asked to find the product, Then, they find the product in a range of numbers to identify the correct color. 

Why do I ask students to find the product and then find it in a range of numbers?

The simple answer is that I want to promote good mental number sense and arithmetic strategies. I have students solve the multiplication fact sentence and THEN find that product in a range. Instead of just solving the same fact for one color over and over. For example; you won't see 7 x 4 and 4 x 7 for one color.
