This book is intended to act as an encouragement for children to learn their tables. On every page there are diagrams made up of small numbered areas. If that number will divide by the number being studied, then the area has to be coloured. When all the target areas of a particular puzzle are coloured, then the hidden picture is revealed. There are also other charts and 'hundred squares' to colour and the book is then rounded off with a target test to confirm the progress being made. £3.40 | Following the pattern of her previous book, this second collection by Hilary McElderry offers new pictures to colour and further opportunity and encouragement for children to learn and practise their multiplication tables. £3.40 | Becoming quick and accurate at the multiplication tables is a very useful skill.
