====Welcome to Multiplication 101 !! ==== Picture Source: [] Multiplication is one of most important skills a student can have to succeed in high school mathematics.

Statistics show that students who are making the transition from primary to secondary education are moving into high school with below average literacy and numeracy skills (ACARA, 2010). This wiki aims at providing ICT resources, curriculum documents and ideas that both teachers and parents can use to strengthen their children and students' multiplication skills.

Students and children who are falling behind in their mathematics and numeracy skills are encouraged to practise the ability to recall their multiplication tables (Morrison, 2007). Here you will find some methods in helping students remember their multiplication times tables, as well as having students create their own way to remember. .

ICT Resources Here you will find variety of resources such as, interactive games, music, videos, software and pictures that can be incorporated into teachers pedagogy. Parents can also use these resources at home to help and encourage their children in becoming confident with recalling multiplication tables.

Student Zone A challenge has been set for your children to create their own method of remembering their multiplication tables. This challenge can be used as an assessment piece for teachers. Children can simply create their own, picture, song, video or presentation to help others in remembering their multiplication tables.

Curriculum Materials This page is designed for practising teachers, outlining current curriculum requirements for teaching Mathematics up to year 9 students. Parents can also access this page to become familiar with the curriculum requirements currently happening within Queensland's Educational Institutes. Links to documents are also available to the proposed Australia's National Curriculum that will be incorporated into our education institutes soon.

Enjoy!
