We’re making up for our worst “marketing fail” ever with a groundbreaking new menu item. Forget everything you know about fractions and wrap your beautiful mind and watering mouth around the A&W 3/9 lb. Burger. It’s bigger, genius. 🍔⚖️ pic.twitter.com/xaeeZj7z60

This from @CliffHunter36 is an old post but new to me. But useful if you are remediating multiplication or even looking for a math starter for higher grades to help hone their multiplication skills. And as the post says, "This is not Splat!" Splat is about solving equations, this is about multiplication. You might also like my post on array multiplication cards or @GFletchy's subitizing multiplication cards.

One of my favourite mathematical properties is the identity property. This is because it seems so simple (and maybe useless) but the idea of multiplying by 1 and getting the same answer is super powerful in so many branches of mathematics and that is because 1 can come in many forms.
