Parent's Guide for Multiplication Tables: memorize Times Tables using ONE basic strategy (Math Education Help from www.learnandenjoy.com Book 2)

Teach your kids the multiplication tables. Great math method for parents en teachers.

36 basic facts are distributed over 6 T-Shirts to memorize the Times Tables.
We use a fixed protocol with limited strategies:

- we only learn 36 basic facts.
- always place the smallest number in front (so 7 x 4 becomes 4 x 7).
- use the halve/double strategy when the first number is even (4 x 7 = 28 because 2 x 7 = 14 and 28 is double of 14).
- use one less/one time more strategy when first number is odd (3 x 7 = 21 because 2 x 7 = 14 and 21 is one group more than 14).

Using ONE main strategy gives children more grip to learn the times tables smoothly!
