[quote=Anonymous]My children are both very smart -- attending good colleges right now. They both took a long time to learn the multiplication tables. Just something about it... I used patience and divided it into sections. The easy ones -- 1-5. the 10s. the 5s. That left 6, 7, 8, 9. I reminded them many times that 3x8 is the same as 8x3 (one of the awful 8s), and that 6x7 is the same as 7x6 (uses up 2, one from the 6s and one from the 7s) 7X5 uses up a 5, which you already learned (because you are so smart-- a little praise== they are just kids) and so on. I think I used flash cards for the harder ones.[/quote]
