Multiplication facts have never been my favorite - but Online Times Alive &the NEW Times Alive App from City Creek Press, Inc. have really helped liven them up!
We have been using this online subscription over the past years with a number of my students. Not all of them learn the same way, and this is where this program has an advantage over traditional methods.
It features short videos with animated characters and silly stories that help illustrate the multiplication facts in a memorable way - great for my visual learners. The songs help my auditory learners cement the multiplication facts. I find myself singing them as I'm correcting their math! Take a peek at one of the videos...
The Online Times Alive is designed for computer use and keeps track of an unlimited number of students on one computer. Students can clear their progress and use the program over and over. Subscriptions do not require a contract and can be cancelled anytime.
The program is very easy to use, and does not require my assistance - a bonus for me! It teaches the multiplication facts from 0-9. The lessons are short, and the variety of activities keeps them interested and learning math facts in a fun way.
Let me give you a peek:
The lesson starts with a short video and song introducing characters to represent the multiplication fact. This is so helpful for your out-of-the-box learners. It encourages recall.
Then, the student is reminded with visual cues and practices with numerals.
Throughout the lessons, students get to practice with timed tests. This is where my testers really needed the extra practice - solidifying the facts, and increasing the speed at which they can remember.
Handy lesson lists show you what your student has been working on.
The Times Alive App has all the same features of the Online version, but lets you take it on the go! This is a great way to maximize any waiting room time. They love time with the phone, and so I let them...as long as it's this app.
Check out this special offer: When you sign up for Times Alive, the company is offering to waive your set-up fee, a $6.95 value, when you use the code lovetolearn.
