## What is Understanding Times Tables?

***** Editor´s Choice - For Excellence in Design - Children´s Technology Review 
"Attention all elementary math teachers: download this app.
Why? Because it can turn a child's fingers into math props, that dynamically link touches with math equations." Children's Technology Review 

"From a educational standpoint, Understanding Math- Times Tables exceeds expectations. As a matter of fact, this is one of the best apps I've found to explain the process of multiplication and division. Another plus is that Understanding Math- Times Tables is aligned with Common Core State Standards." FunEducationalApps.com

"The activities in Understanding Mathematics – Times Tables have been carefully designed so that children can manipulate items in the activity to help them understand the concept of multiplication and division.  I highly recommend it." OnSarahsiPad

Understanding Math - Times Tables is the first app in a series of educational apps based on J. Bruner's Learning Theory “Three Modes of Representation”. Understand and practise multiplication and division in 4 games and show your skills in the Duel! Compete against your peers or even parents by setting different levels of difficulty!


THE HUNDRED BOARD
Solve the problem by pulling the sheet on the Hundred Board. Understand the commutative property of multiplication (4x8 is equivalent to 8x4). 
Common Core Standard Apply properties of operations as strategies to multiply and divide 

MULTIPLICATION
Solve the problem by touching the display. 3 x 4 - tap 3 times with 4 fingers.  The multiplication shows as a shortened addition. See and feel the quantity. After the problem is solved, you can pop the objects by touching them. 
Common Core Standard Interpret products of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 3x4  as the total number of objects in 3 groups of 4 objects each. 
Please turn off your multitouch gesture in settings as this will close the app!

DIVISION
Solve the problem by dragging the objects into the boxes. Find the number of shares when objects are partitioned into equal shares. You can move several objects at the same time. You can write the solution over the boxes. 
Once you reach the most difficult level (after 200 correct answers) you will get problems with remainders (example 4 R3)

Common Core Standard Interpret whole-number quotients of whole numbers 

TRAINING
Solve the problem by writing the solution onto the screen. Help is provided by the iconic representation of the numbers. 
 

DUEL 
Two players compete against each other. Each player can choose his level of difficulty.  Kids can play against their peers or against their parents, simply choose the appropriate level.
Level 1: 1,2,5,10
Level 2: 1,2,3,4,5,10
Level 3: 1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10, 0
Level 4: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, 0
Tap the sun to start. The first to enter the correct solution will earn a star. Earning 5 stars wins the game.  The results are not tracked in the scoreboard!
 
TOOLBOX HUNDRED BOARD

This Montessori Hundred Board is a tool to help understand multiplication. Explore multiplication and division by playing with the board. Adjust the board for individual use. Activate the factors, multiplication, division and the solution separately.

### 5/5 — Very helpful

*2021-04-14*

Very easy to use even for kids with learning disability.

### 4/5 — Suggestion to improve

*2020-04-23*

I am looking for am app to help my 6yo daughter to start memorising times tables, as well as get a visual concept of what is happening with the numbers. 
Your app is great for getting the visual concept, but I think a simple additional feature would make it much better for memorising times tables.
Could you consider adding a voice. So that when the student selects the correct answer, rather than just having a bell ring, a voice could say “ six times two is twelve” . This would reinforce the solution for better recall later  ( at least for auditory learners)

### 1/5 — Enttäuschung

*2019-10-27*

Keine ausreichende Erklärung. Lautes negatives Geräusch bei falscher Lösung. Keine positive Bestätigung

**Developer response:** Hallo, herzlichen Dank für die Rückmeldung. Kurze Erklärungen finden sich hinter dem Fragezeichen im jeweiligen Spiel. Eine ausführliche Erklärung ist im Info Bereich oder auf unserer Webseite oder hier: http://apppmedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Lehrerhandreichung_MatheVerstehen-DasKleineEinmaleins_pub_web.pdf - Wenn die App nicht zusagt kann sie einfach über den App Store zurück gegeben werden: Letzte Käufe -> ein Problem melden. Ich hoffe das hat Ihnen weitergeholfen und wünsche ein schönes Wochenende!

These games are much too fast for an adult, much less the intended audience of children. Total waste of money.
