Watch Third-Grade Math Magic Happen!

We’re super excited to help every third grader become a Multiplication Master this year! Why? Because mastering those times tables makes math so much easier—in school and for life.

To make sure all our students leave third grade knowing their multiplication facts inside and out, we’re adding a special twist: 10% of your child’s math grade will now be based on mastering multiplication facts!

How Does It Work?

Each quarter, we’ll focus on different multiplication families in a timed, friendly way:

• Quarter 1: Master 2s, 5s, and 10s in 5 minutes.

• Quarter 2: Master 3s, 4s, and 6s in 5 minutes.

• Quarter 3: Master 7s, 8s, and 9s in 5 minutes.

• Quarter 4: Mix it up! Complete a 100-question mixed multiplication sheet in 8 minutes (and you’ll do this 3 times).

As soon as your student masters their set, they’ll automatically earn their 10%!

How Will Grades Work?

Here’s our easy-peasy scoring system:

Passing all three facts - 100%

Passing two facts - 85% 

Passing one facts - 70% 

Passing no facts - 0 %
