Our schools put great emphasis on multiplying single-digit numbers (for example 8 x 7, 6 x 9,and so forth), and for many children Ancilla-College, their success or failure at maths hinges on doing well in this rudimentary area. The general theory amongst most teachers and parents is that the only way to get good at multiplying is to memorise the tables.

There is a major problem with that theory, though. No one ever teaches our kids how to memorise! People just assume that every child will memorise by just looking at the tables or by repeating them over and over again. OK, this works for some kids, but for the rest it is a real struggle.

Time Table Rhyme, either the printed flash cards or eBook, can help you and your child achieve greater success learning and remembering the multiplication times tables with minimum effort, and is ideally suited for grade one to grade six primary-school-age children as reported by Ancilla-College.

Time Table Rhyme is based on 12 fun characters who get into all sorts of situations; colourful illustrations combined with a short story create a number image in your child's imagination. To a child, the maths multiplication tables have an abstract nature; they're a group of symbols with little meaning or purpose, boring and difficult to remember from one lesson to the next, or to memorise over a long period of time.

Our learning card system uses proven visual and auditory memory hooks based on an age-old technique called mnemonics that will help your child learn quickly and recall at RANDOM. The number image contains the answer. When the two characters meet, whatever they are doing rhymes with the answer - for example, "Dirty Tricks - 36"


Testimonial One

Greetings! Wowee wow wow! We received our cards about two weeks ago and I am simply flabbergasted! My six year old daughter absolutely loves these cards and has quickly and easily mastered the 2 & 3 times tables. It is hard to go slowly, as suggested, but the method works! We love our cards and practice when running errands in the car or while drifting off to sleep. Thomasin loves it that she knows more than I do! What a great learning tool - we can't wait to introduce them into her first grade class in September! Thank you so much!!!! (M. MacCallum)

Testimonial Two

A groan always goes up, not only from children but parents as well, when 'multiplication tables' are mentioned. Dyslexics always seem to have such problems with them being unable to cope with their abstract nature. Now a local mother has come up with a fun answer. Through great experience and experiments with her own dyslexic children, she has very professionally produced 'Time Table Rhyme'. These large beautifully illustrated flash cards with twelve different characters who get into all sorts of situations that rhyme with the answer. Do have a look at them if you can. We will have them on show at our meetings. ( Reprinted from UK Dyslexia Association News letter. )

Testimonial Three

I want to give you extremely positive feedback on the Time Table Rhyme. I have to tell you it has been amazing. Every day our daughter is getting more confident in maths and also reading. Her primary aide found it very easy to use and it overcame any organizational obstacles. Now she has a maths tutor who is equally impressed.

  • Learning Literacy at a Young Age
    Between the ages of key stage one and key stage two, children will be learning their basic literacy skills, which will provide them with the foundation to build a more solid and diverse understand in future years. The subject is commonly split up into 3 different factions. Reading, writing and spelling, however, in some cases spelling is often a sub structure of writing. These skills are fundamental and are tested and adapted throughout subjects across the academic curriculum as well as being essential to everyday life.

  • The Importance of Outdoor Learning
    Traditionally, learning and education has always been conducted indoors in a safe and secure leaning and environment, however this has since been revised and looked into in more detail. The outdoor environment is a rich and dynamic natural space from which a lot can be learned through a physical and interactive process. Children from all ages will be able to learn in a fun and healthy environment when some classes are taken outside.

  • How the National Curriculum Is Broken Down
    The National Curriculum is taught to all pupils who attend state or maintained schools and has been employed to help assess and advance the progress of national education standards. It has been typically broken down into significant year blocks which are more commonly recognised as key stages.

  • How Educational Resources Have Changed
    As with all advancements in technology, many different sectors are directly influenced by the changes, sometimes for the good and sometimes not. Most industries that are hit first are those of business as these advancements can often affect their operations, marketing and production, etc. However, education in schools, colleges and universities are all influenced by the changes in technology.

  • Understanding the National Curriculum and Key Stage Tests
    All schools are permitted to ensure that each and every child's performance is assessed at specific times and intervals; this is all part of the National Curriculum. These teacher assessments, as they are commonly referred to, are designed to give you, your child and the school, information about their progresses. From this, we will be able to identify their strengths and weaknesses. It is imperative that this is done early.

  • Ghana Life: Meetings With Ghana's Snakes
    In the 1970s, the veteran curator of the reptile house of the University of Ghana, at Legon, near Accra, proudly told visitors that he had participated in a survey of the snakes of the Gold Coast led by George Cansdale, later of the London Zoo and famous for his BBC TV animal programmes of the 1950s. 'We found,' the curator would say, 'seventy different species of snakes, of which fourteen are venomous.' Even though it might seem that only twenty percent of Ghana's snakes pose an immediate danger to human beings, most encounters seem to involve the venomous species, or at least that's the way it appears in hindsight.
