But then I remember "times tables" :-)

My 7 year old came home with homework last week where he had to learn his
2
times table. Which was interesting, because although he knew the maths
and
the numbers, he had no concept of the whole "no twos are zero, one two is
two, etc" phrasing/chanting of it.



It is a damned good system and worked well for decades if not longer.
