How to Quickly Teach Multiplication Facts with No Struggle

Posted by Erica Warren on

I know far too well that rote memorization is both boring and frustrating for many young learners.  Over the years, I have also witnessed many students that struggle to learn these foundational skills to resist the process, exhibit anxiety and begin to question their own intelligence.  This is why coming up with a new approach to teaching multiplication facts was one of my first priorities when I opened my educational therapy practice 20 years ago.

Learning the multiplication tables is one of the trickiest endeavours for many elementary students.  Some have great difficulties encoding this material, and I'm happy to day that rote memorization is not the only way to overcome this challenge!

What are the 4 Secret Ingredients to Learning the Basic Multiplication Facts? 

  1. Creating a multisensory learning process: In other words, how could I meet the learning needs of all of my students by conduct to a symphony of senses?  Tapping into visual, auditory, tactile and kinesthetic styles was primary, but I also wanted to make the process a highly organized sequence of steps that offered students the opportunity to verbalize, interact with others, and directly experience the learning process.  Finally, I wanted the process to make logical sense so that students could walk away with an understanding of multiplication and division, something that rote memorization never offered.
  2. Making the learning process fun:  Knowing that most young learners enjoy mazes, coloring, karaoke, and even dancing, I decided to throw these key attractions into the mixture. 
  3. Presenting a memorable approach:  I integrated visual, tactile, and body memory strategies as well as melodic methods that use public domain melodies that most kids already know!
  4. Keeping the process simple for the instructor as well as the students: I created a simple to follow manual with lots of images and ready to use printable handouts to make the process straightforward and easily accessible.
