[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They learn the facts, make sure they learn what multiplication means.[/quote] Oh please, how hard is it to understand what multiplication means. Any kid who is in AAP shouldn't have a difficult time understanding the meaning of multiplication. It takes a couple of lessons to understand it is repeated addition and a way to group numbers. What takes a longer time for many students is memorizing them, which is no longer emphasized. It is really hard to do well in math if you don't have your math facts memorized. Once you do then you can spend more time on understanding more complicated concepts because your working memory isn't being overloaded trying to skip count or count up or down.[/quote] I totally agree. Math facts are often what trip people up. [/quote]
