This is just my personal experience. I feel multiplication learnt through memorising or singing a song or rhyme is probably a quick and faster way of getting the multiplication into the child memory. The downside is I have seen a child when asked, what is 7X8, they will need to sing a rhyme or chant a timestable list, 1X8, 2X8 until he reaches 7X8 to get the answer!

Does your child know what multiplication really means?

From what I understand from my niece’s tutor, at P1, they only need to learn repeated addition and they must be strong in the CONCEPT of multiplication. Only at P2, then they need to memorise the times table.

Now that she is in P2, she starts to memorise her times table. At this age, she is more matured and can memorise easily. At the same time, she also understands what she is actually memorising. Her tutor made her memorise by singing songs. She sings them to us after every tuition class.

Unlike my days, when my parents made us memorise with a cane on hand. Haha.
