A visual multi-representation of learning the times tables using number paths and number lines.
It incorporates the language of strategy (4 of anything is double double eg 4 sixes is double double 6 so students may write
4 sixes = 2 x 12 (the 12 being double 6)
= 24) and so this is about having a strategy for each times table not rote learning (the only rote learned tables are doubles and tens). Using a strategy is more efficient than skip counting 4,8... or 6, 12..., builds on what they know (doubling) and is therefore easier to repeat.
If you have any feedback on how to improve it, I can incorporate suggestions!
