[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 479457, member: 1514"] Okay I actually think kids need to learn the basics as building blocks. I hate seeing those multiplication tables taped to desks. Yes there are some kids who cant learn them but not most of the kids we have here to be honest I dont think. Calculators can come later after they know them. We played games to learn them. We called out the facts such as "2 times 2" and the other person had to answer "4" before they could talk. Or you would say "12" and the other person could give you any of the ways that would divide into 12 to make up 12. They learned. And before anyone says I didnt have to deal with any kids with learning disabilities yes I did. Billy was learning disabled. He had Learning Disability (LD)'s in math and written expression. [/QUOTE]
