Times Tables 36 Essential facts - There are 36 facts that help you with your times tables. These are ones we need to learn to do well in maths!
Commutative - this means that no matter what order our factors are, we get the same product. 7x6=42 AND 6x7=42. It is the same with addition: 1+2 = 3 AND 2+1=3.
Families of facts - This is where we learn one fact off by heart. From this we actually learn FOUR facts!!!
3x2 = 6, means you know 2x3=6 and, 6 divided by 2 = 3 AND 6 divided by 3 = 2!!!!!!

When we have more than one "thing", we don't use an apostrophe:
dog ----> dogs
car ----> cars
person ----> people
If we refer to someone or something BELONGING to someone or something, THEN we use an apostrophe MOST of the time:
Vicki's cat ----> the cat belongs to Vicki
table's legs ----> the legs belong to the table
school's classrooms ----> the classrooms belong to the school
There are a few instances where we don't use an apostrophe when things belong to them:
the coat is hers - no apostrophe
his cat - no apostrophe
