Using a pattern based on ten, this guide is meant to show pupils how multiplication tables aren't scary or hard to learn, and emphasise how they work rather than just using blind learning by rote. 
It can be used for pupils of any age who have trouble remembering the multiplication tables. There will be a second part to this showing how this method applies to larger multiples which is very useful for long division.
 
It goes up to 12s but gives you insight on being able to do ANY multiplication sum.
