"Time Tables the Fun Way"

This week we learned about times tables. Our teacher is reading from a book that has lots of fun stories to help us remember our times tables. First, we learned about how "O" is KING! Second, our teacher taught us that "1" is like a mirror. Third, the book said you have to be 16 to drive a 4x4, so we can remember that 4x4=16. We then learned a cheer to helps us remember 3x4. It goes like this, "1, 2, 3, 4, I like math let's do some more!" (Which means 12=3x4)
This book has lots more multiplication facts and riddles. You should read it!

Sincerely, 
Mrs. Braymer's Class

This sounds really cool. How about these tricks:

To remember 7X8 all you have to do is be able to count 5, 6, 7, 8 so 56=7X8.

There is a easy pattern for 9 facts too. Do you know what it is?
