The book, Right Brain Math is an introduction to a right brain Path to Math and gives instructions for having students create an EZ Times Table. Each step is illustrated in a full 8.5” x 11” table with fun graphic images. On each direction page there is a “More Information” section for teachers for additional ideas, suggestions, options, and more.
Even some kindergarten kids have had fun creating the times table. See a video of Oscar having fun creating the EZ Times Table.
The EZ Times Table can be used for addition in Kindergarten and first grade, and uses the same structure over the years to move to subtraction, multiplication, division, factors, place value, and prime numbers. It also has a link with slope graphs and teaches kids to make and read tables.
“I am excited about the EZ TIMES TABLES and its structured, concrete, and logical approach to multiplication and division. I taught my 22 Fourth graders how to build their own EZ TIMES TABLES and their comments reflected their discoveries as the inquiry process helped them see the relationships between numbers and facts. I also presented EZ TIMES TABLES at a faculty meeting and 6 teachers asked for a copy so they too could teach EZ TIMES TABLES to their students.”
