Learning the 7 times tables
I have used
this strategy with students who are finding the seven times tables difficult
to learn and remember. (Colour coding is
also very useful).
1. Write the numbers 0 – 9 like this:
0
|
7
|
4
|
1
|
8
|
5
|
2
|
|
9
|
6
|
3
|
These are
the unit/ones numbers for the multiples of 7.
2. Now begin to put in the tens numbers
to complete the table like this:
0
0
x 7 =
|
7
1
x 7
|
14
2
x 7
|
21
3
x 7
|
28
4
x 7
|
35
5
x 7
|
42
6
x 7
|
|
49
7
x 7
|
56
8
x 7
|
63
9
x 7
|
3. Notice how the pattern continues:
0
0
x 7
70
10
x 7
|
7
1
x 7
77
11
x 7
|
14
2
x 7
84
12
x 7
|
21
3
x 7
91
13
x 7
|
28
4
x 7
98
14
x 7
|
35
5
x 7
105
15
x 7
|
42
6
x 7
112
16
x 7
|
|
49
7
x 7
119
17
x 7
|
56
8
x 7
126
18
x 7
|
63
9
x 7
133
19
x 7
|
