The oldest already has a girl he likes so, when he chops down his tree, he makes it point in her direction. But Mikko has no skill

Understanding the Properties of Multiplication - Small Group Reader's Theater
This small group reader's theater is for four students. The key concept, besides reading fluently, is the 4 Properties of Multiplication and the Math Vocabulary that goes along with it. When I used it in my class, the students who performed it REALLY got into it. That might be because I, myself, love math! They did a wonderful job and, a month later, STILL remember the properties and why they are what they are. My class is 99% ESL and language is VERY important in every lesson not just in readin
