This text is a basic tool - a self-teaching, self-explanatory worktext - to learn multiplication concept and the times tables. It lets children first learn well the multiplication concept itself, tying it in with number lines, rows and columns, multiplying by zero, some word problems, and order of operations. Then the second part practices all the times tables. In each lesson student fills the 12 x 12 grid up to those facts that are already memorized and can clearly see the progress and how little is still left. Math Mammoth Multiplication 1 always shows the patterns found in the times tables - and emphasizes doing it 'backwards' to facilitate later learning of division. Full answers are included.
