* Traditional Times Table for Multiplication *

Allowing students to use a Times Table for all calculations is

very appropriate and assists them along the road to success.

Students need practice using a table to retrieve information

and numerical values since this is a real-life skill for all of us.

Basic Calculators should be taught and used with students

along with the Times Table. Don’t assume they know how

to use a Basic Calculator! Teach it and use it as a checker.
