While introducing your students to multiplication and arrays, consider using your geoboards. Students can easily build and visualize multiplication problems. I also like to use Connect Four Boards to build arrays (Another great visual).
Below you can download these posters on multiplication and division strategies. These make GREAT anchor charts!

Roll and Array Game
You will need Graph Paper and Colored Pencils.
1. Roll one dice in dice and use those
numbers as the sides of the area of your land plot.
2. Draw the fence line
around your plot. The fence line forms the perimeter of your plot.
3. Write
the multiplication problem in your plot.
4. Color in your plot with a colored
pencil. You will be coloring in the area of the plot.
This game is played
in pairs. When there is no more room to place your next plot of land, the game
is over. The player with the most land area is the winner.
You might also
consider laminating a few grids and using dry erase markers instead
of colored pencils and graph paper.
