Learn and understand multiplication tables with Cuisenaire rulers

The easiest way to learn multiplication tables is through the Cuisenaire colored ruler system.

With the Cuisenaire strip system, the numbers from 1 to 10 are represented with strips of different colors and sizes for each number, making it easier to understand and associate the concepts of size, greater than ... equal to ... smaller what...

Each number corresponds to a color and size of strip.

It is also easier to understand the properties of multiplication, such as the commutative property (3 x 5 = 5 x 3, the order of the factors does not alter the product).

Using the Cuisenaire strips it is easy to observe that 3 x 5 gives us the same result as 5 x 3 and to visually understand that 5 strips of 3 units add up to the same amount and occupy the same space as 3 strips of 5 units.

With the Cuisenaire Multiplication Table System, you can learn and understand tables 1 through 10 more easily by associating the colors and sizes of numbers.
