__Description__ In my presentation I am showing my special education students how to correctly use a multiplication chart. I initially started off modeling how to correctly use the chart. Students were then given a multiplication problem to solve using the multiplication chart. Next students were given the opportunity to come up to the Elmo and display how to solve the problem using the multiplication chart.

__Reflection__ I believe using the Elmo really helped the students visualize how to correctly find the product and correctly use a multiplication chart. Before I used the Elmo I asked students to find their answer using the chart and they were unsure how to find their answers. I was able to show them without trying to hold the multiplication chart in my hand and point to numbers using the other. I actually maneuvered through the process without hearing “which numbers are you pointing to?” Giving them the opportunity to come to the Elmo and show that they understood how to correctly find the multiplication product was exciting for them. Everyone wanted a turn to show that they comprehended and had the right answer.
