[quote=Anonymous]Do you feel like he doesn't know the answers, or just the the can't do them really fast? Some kids choke on speed when it is abstract, but can pull the answer to mind quickly when in the context of a more complex problem. In any case, I suggest using multiple methods (sight, written, interactive, aural) and doing just a little each day. Flashcards one day, write out the tables or do a worksheet another day, a game app the next, sing or make up songs on another day (like school house rock). Create a fact grid and as he masters a number, let him cross off the corresponding lines on the grid. Help him find patterns to show that if you know __ then you also know __.[/quote]
