Learning the times tables is a complex subject that on occasion can present a certain amount of difficulty for some children. The traditional form of teaching the times tables consists of asking children to memorise a series of numbers and to keep repeating until they are able to recite the times tables in complete form. Thus, it is normal for students to make errors; usually generating feelings of frustration and insecurity in the children and may cause bother in the person who is teaching them. From our point of view, it is necessary to develop procedures that will eliminate or reduce these kinds of problems. The present material intends to offer the educative community a new teaching strategy for learning the times tables (see Alós, Lora & Jiménez, 2014). The reader can consult the theoretical foundation in Alós, Guerrero & Falla (2013).
The aim of this booklet is to teach the multiplication tables with minimal errors, favouring a greater level of motivation from the people who are in the process of learning: child and adult. In essence, it will be a step by step process, so that the child can memorise, little by little the numbers and from this way avoid mistakes.
