Multiplication Hopscotch

This is the Multiplication Hopscotch floor mat. Designed to reflect a game of hopscotch, this floor mat helps students learn how to multiply numbers by themselves, from 1 times 1 to 10 times 10, and, in turn, setting the foundation for squaring and exponent work. Each row that contains two numbers is composed of two factors, which, once multiplied together, make the product immediately above the row.
