Four 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 FOUR TIMES table is positioned. 

TOP MIDDLE.

Location, location!

The FOUR TIMES table has nine positions and these are always in the TOP MIDDLE

Similarly, there are nine tables. If we multiply BY FOUR, the answer will also always be in the TOP MIDDLE position within each table.

Location, colour and image combined

When a number is multiplied by FOUR, the answer will always be in ORANGE in the TOP MIDDLE position. 

Also, within the overall picture, the big ORANGE box in the TOP MIDDLE position, holds the FOUR 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 BOAT with the FOUR 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.
