The following videos show different strategies to memorize the math facts. For some students, some strategies will work; for other students, they will not. I am presenting these strategies in video form I found online. One way of memorizing the multiplication table is the use of skip counting. Put it in a song and in a video, the student will more likely remember the numbers.

Videos from Mr. Numbers
These videos features the use of drawing a Tic-Tac-Toe grid, a number wheel, a pentagon, or a star to make the multiplication table or chart. This is just another fun way of “memorizing” the multiplication table for students who have difficulties memorizing the multiplication facts. These also show that math is about patterns.
