I'm looking for a way to incorporate more movement/dance into learning multiplication and other math concepts. Any ideas??

I've used Smart Shorties with my 4th grade classes. Each fact has a song that goes with it set to pretty popular rap/ pop songs. Since the kids know the tune (and like it) they begin to sing along with the facts.

This game is for after they've initially done multiplication facts, to practice speed or learn the concept of common multiples. -

Assign each child (or group) a number. Count up from 1 to 100, and the students have to stand up when the number called is a multiple of their number.

You can start off slowly, then speed up, or start off in order, and then call random numbers...whatever you like.
