25 Jul Fluency Tip: Chants as Attention-Getters!
Login to the Members’ Site to print this Multiplication Chants Bulletin Board Set!
Here’s a nearly effortless way to build fact fluency!
Watch the video tutorial below for a demonstration of how to utilize the Factivation!® chants as your daily class attention getters. Teachers use attention getters multiple times throughout the day. If I had to estimate the number of times I would use an attention getter with my class, I would have to say it would be in the range of 20-30 times a day. Just imagine 20-30 daily exposures to Multiplication facts like 6×3, 8×7, 7×7, etc! This is a powerful, but little-known secretthat I would encourage you to start using today, literally- TODAY! Also, why not get your K-2 teachers on board? You know they use attention-getters daily as well, maybe more times than you! Imagine 2-3 years worth of daily exposure to the fifteen Multiplication facts the attention-getters address!?! Seriously, what are you waiting for? It’s an easy but highly effective means of reinforcement!

Posted at 16:48h, 24 SeptemberHello!
Thanks for suggesting using chants as attention getters. I work with small groups of students, and plan to do this as I bring them to my room and back to theirs.
I would like to be able to print the chants. Is there a printable version on your site?

Posted at 15:39h, 06 OctoberThanks for your comment, Cheri. You can print the chants from the Multiplication/Division members’ homepage. Once logged in, look in the left column under “Classroom Resources”. There are two printable versions: “Chants’ Attention Getters Guide” and “Chants Quick Reference”. This is a quick but effective way to reinforce many Multiplication facts.
