One times table
Position, Colour and image to help you remember your times tables! Before you start, make sure you understand how it works.
Then, focus on location and learn where the ONE TIMES table is positioned.
TOP LEFT.
Location, location!
The ONE TIMES table has nine positions and these are always in the TOP LEFT.
Similarly, there are nine tables. If we multiply BY ONE, the answer will also always be in the TOP LEFT position within each table.

Location, colour and image combined
When a number is multiplied by ONE, the answer will always be in GREY in the TOP LEFT position.
Also, within the overall picture, the big GREY box in the TOP LEFT position, holds the ONE TIMES table. Here, the colour of each number depends on the number we are multiplying with.
Finally, we can connect an image to each table. In the worksheets below, we associate a CANDLE with the ONE TIMES table.
Interestingly, when we look at all the tables combined (with each table in its own unique position), we discover some amazing facts about square numbers, symmetry, sums and relative relationships.
