[quote=Anonymous]We didn't start memorizing multiplication tables until the start of third grade. DC could skip count, but didn't really connect that to multiplication until it was explicitly taught. We're now halfway through the year and she just did a practice test tonight. She knows about 2/3 of the table up to 12s. She knows her 2s, 5s, 10s, 11s, and 12s perfectly, most of the 3s and 4s with a bit of hesitancy in the higher numbers (she can skip count these, but has to actually count up when the problem is greater than multiplying by 5), and about half of her 6-9s. Her math teacher said she needs to focus more on her times tables, so not sure if those are high demands or if most other kids know them better by now.[/quote]
