Turn the Tables
TURN the Tables is ideal for whole class instruction, small group instruction, remedial instruction, one-to-one tutorial instruction, for enrichment, for those students working independently and for home school instruction.
Throughout the instruction students are presented with visual, auditory, kinesthetic, tactile and rhythmic associations to the multiplication facts. Initially, students are asked to focus on the printed answers as they say them orally. Body movements such as dipping a shoulder and stomping a foot are added to emphasize particular associations creating additional memory pathways. Finally, in keeping with the multisensory method of instruction, tactile and rhythmic modalities are incorporated to open additional pathways of learning. The sequential nature and predictability of TURN the Tables increases student confidence & makes the challenge of learning the times tables Fun, Fast and Easy.
