The Dangers of Learning Your Times Tables

...or How I Broke My Arm Last Night


This brief post is dedicated to an enthusiastic and energetic young man who took up the idea to do something kinesthetic while learning times tables facts. This is a great strategy to combine left- and right-brain and get things really embedded in the memory.

The choice of action was trampolining.

Sadly, our young mathematician misjudged the jump and ended up with a broken arm.

So be careful out there. Those times tables can be dangerous.
