The McClanahan 7: Times Tables the Fun Way. As a member of TOS Crew this year we have tried some excellent curriculum and we have had some fun things too. Times Alive from City Creek Press falls into both categories. Times Alive makes learning the 0-9 multiplications tables fun. I used this program with my 8 & 9 year old daughters, but my 6 year old loved the videos and some of the activities.  View other sample videos here . The first thing to do in Times Alive is to take a pre-test with 48 multiplication problems, this test records the number answered correctly, a percentage score, and the time it takes to complete the test.  The fun part comes after the pre-test. This is the 4X4 story. The stories that are used for each fact are very easy to remember. Activity for 3X3. The kids like Times Alive for the fun videos and the catchy songs, I like it because they are actually remembering their multiplication facts, I just wish we would have had it years ago when my older children were learning theirs.
