Hi Susan! I love that 9’s trick as well, and believe me – it was hard for me to take out because it is how I have done the 9’s my entire life. HOWEVER, I do know that it is not the best way to learn them, and I wanted to make sure that the station was based on best-practice. 🙂 Thank you for your comment! I hope you enjoy the new station.

I loved the 9’s trick in the old version! It helps kids become fluent on paper tests. I will keep BOTH. I agree the conceptual understanding is important and always stress.

Hi Brittany! Yes, you can still download and save the old version until the end of February. However, the new version has an entire level dedicated to facts beyond 10×10. So your students will learn the strategies that they can use to work with 11’s and 12’s facts and practice with the 11’s and 12’s is included in that level. I just wanted students to realize that they can use those strategies with ANY facts – not only 11’s and 12’s. I think you’ll be pleased with how the 11’s and 12’s are incorporated into that final level 🙂

If I still want my students to learn and practice facts through 12×12 will those resources still be available? They were in the old version but I had not yet purchased.
