2 Times Table Coloring Pages and a Digital Activity...

I don't know about you, but the move to digital learning over night in March made me realise how much I needed to update my Google Drive knowledge and skills. Having taught mostly younger children, I had never really gotten to grips with how Google Drive works, how to create work for Google Drive, and how to assign activities to children digitally. 

So, like many of you, I'm sure, this is something I've been working on.

 I've had more time to spend with Google Drive since the start of the summer, and I've made a few multiplication resources to try to develop and strengthen my digital knowledge and skills. I know schools are planning for different schedules when they go back this year (full time in class / full time digital / a mixture of both), so the 2 times table (free) resource I'm linking to here has both a digital and a printable component. 

This file has 2 versions of a 'Candy Store' 2 times table picture (click the 'Candy Store' picture above to access the Google Slides folder that contains all of the files). Children multiply each number on a candy jar by 2, writing the answer in the candy jar next to each number. Once they are finished, they can then color the picture. Hopefully, the addition of the coloring job helps solve the 'What can I do now?' problem for your fast finishers!

When teaching multiplication, however, I always want the children to be able to reference a visual representation of a multiplication equation. So the coloring page also asks them to find 'How many groups of 2 children' and create a multiplication equation based on that question.

On one of the coloring pages, there are no children - so their equation should be: 0 x 2 = 0. 

One the second coloring page, there are 2 groups of 2 children, so their equation should be: 2 x 2 = 4.

And the digital compenent: a full-color Candy Store, where children solve the 2 times table equations, writing their answers in the empty spaces next to each number (on the Google Slide, I have included a grey text box, so children just need to click the text box, and enter their answers). 

The digital version is the same as the coloring page versions, so the same answer key should be used for both.

I hope you find these helpful! Any problems or questions, please let me know, so I can help resolve them (this will also help me to learn). 

Thinking of all teachers as we prepare to go back to the classrooms. Stay safe everyone.
