After drilling and practicing for weeks, I finally figured out the best way to help Grant practice his times tables: duh, have his brothers do it! Blake and Hayden had a blast holding up the cards and helping. Grant really had fun too. Blake was especially helpful. If Grant got it right, he was answered with a "Correct-o!" and if he got it wrong or paused too long, Blake gave really great hints like "it's ten plus eight more" or "it's 3 and a 2". After 20 minutes of practicing with his brothers, Blake excitedly reported that Grant got them all right! I hope he aces his next test.
