Teaching multiplication tables does not have to mean painful and agonizing memorization and drills. Instead, you can teach a child logic that will help them learn their multiplication tables very quickly. Here are my tips for teaching multiplication tables.
Teach them hand tricks. This works best for the 9 times tables, but there are others as well that you can find online. Try this: Hold up your hands in front of your face. Now work out 3 X 9. With both hands facing you, fold down third finger counting left to right. What you will have are 2 fingers before the folded down finger, and 7 fingers after. 3 X 9 is 27. This trick works every time.
