Book Reviews of Times Tables the Fun Way: Book for Kids: A Picture Method of Learning the Multiplication Facts

Book Review: Very effective!
Summary: 4 Stars

I work with 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students with learning disabilities. For many of them, memorizing the multiplication tables is an overwhelming if not impossible task. This amazing book offers strategies for the facts you can count (2s, 5s, 10s), and picture-stories for the rest...it turns out there are only about 15 facts that truly have to be memorized. Using this book, ALL of my students have learned their facts and LOVED it! They ask to have the stories read to them over and over again. I gave the book 4 stars because a couple of the stories are a bit of a stretch and a little difficult to remember. However, my students love to make up their own, more memorable stories to replace them - a lesson in itself!

Summary of Times Tables the Fun Way: Book for Kids: A Picture Method of Learning the Multiplication Facts

Memorization of the multiplication facts is fun and easy with this colorful and clever book of cartoons and stories. Children learn to associate the numbers with the characters in the story. To teach 4x4, the story tells about Bart who loves to go hang gliding and can't wait until he turns 16 so he can get his driver's license and drive his 4 by 4. Children easily remember once the story is learned. The caption below the story says: Remember: you have to be 16 to drive a 4x4.

There are cartoons and stories for all the difficult facts, ie. the 3's, 4's, 6's, 7's, and 8's. Tricks are are used to teach the easier ones ie. 1's, 2's, 5's, and 9's. Kids love the stories and will never forget "You have to be 16 to drive a 4 by 4, (4x4). Over 500,000 copies have been sold to schools in the US since 1992.
