Multiplication Facts

In math, we are deep into long division, including problems with two digit divisors. However, this is becoming increasingly difficult, because the majority of students are not able to quickly recite their multiplication facts. Please spend a few minutes each night at home reviewing/studying these basic facts. It breaks my heart to see students struggling, when there is a pretty "easy fix!" 6's, 7's, and 8's seem to be presenting the most difficulty... Thank you for your help and support at home!
