Templates for Students to Use

In exploring the Microsoft website, I found several templates that my future students can use to aid them in productivity.

1.) Multiplication Flash Cards
This template is full of blank multiplication flash cards that I could easily print off and cut out and use them with my students. The multiplication starts with 1 x 1 and goes all the way up to 12 x 12.
For this template, I would print all of the flash cards out that apply to the level of math my class is studying. I would print them out on brightly colored paper so they tend to stand out and then after I printed them I would cut them out. Next, I would sit in a chair and have all of the students gather around on the floor and I would flip through them and I would have the students practice shout out the answer to the problem on the card.

2.) Handwriting Practice Paper
This template is very useful when a student needs to practice their handwriting. It contains solid and dotted lines so the students are able to practice the size and the technique of their letters.
For this template, I would handout 4 of these handwriting practice papers to each student. Next, I would have them practice writing all of the capital letters of the alphabet in cursive on two of the sheets of paper and I would have them write all of the lowercase letters in cursive on the other two sheets.

3.) Multiplication Table
This template is very effective in teaching students their multiplication facts. It is a a plain multiplication table that teaches kids how to multiply all the way up to 10 x 10.
At the beginning of the year, I would print out however many students were in my class that year and I would cut them out and tape a multiplication table on each of the students desks. When they first start learning multiplication, they will be able to look at their little chart and find the product, which will eventually help them learn their multiplication facts.
