You can also do a Google search “problem solving activities for ___ grade”. I usually have great luck with a specific search for my grade level. 🙂

May 3, 2016 at 1:48 pmI have a child struggling with multiplication facts. Any suggestions? There is so much out there. We us MUS and she does the drills, but is not making progress and getting so discouraged.

May 4, 2016 at 8:55 amJo, I know your struggle! Have you tried Times Tales? That has worked wonders with my boys. The stories that go along with the facts seem to really make sense for children who are visual and/or auditory learners especially.
Otherwise, my youngest (9) really likes when we play catch while practicing facts. He’s very kinesthetic. We put on the baseball gloves and take turns calling out facts and answering them as we throw the baseball.
