Down Syndrome Learning Fun
“I just wanted to send a quick email telling you that my son and I are having fun with your multiplication and division system. He is 8 and has Down syndrome. We’ve been kind of hit and miss with the Memory Joggers this summer, however, this morning he remembered 9 x 7, 8 x 4 and 9 x 9. And the best part of it is that he thinks it’s so much fun! We act pretty silly and have a really good time going over the stories.”

ESL Students
I am dropping you this email to let you know how well Memory Joggers works with my ESL students.  It’s not only helping with their math skills but with language development as well.  Thank you.

Learned in a Week
I have an 11 year old who was really struggling with memorizing multiplication tables.  He did this program and within a week or so learned them all.  He is so proud that he knows his multiplication/division facts and can now advance much faster in his math.  Thank you so much from a “homeschool mom and son”…. your product is great!!

Eight-year-old gets a 100%!
I thought you might like to know that I used Memory Joggers with my son who’s 8 to learn his times tables.  He thought it was great fun and just got 100% on a big times tables test!  So thanks!

New Teacher Success
When I began teaching third grade, I found some difficulty with teaching the basics of multiplication.  I tried rote drills, writing times tables, speed drills, etc.  I recently discovered your system and it works like magic.  The children are reciting their times tables like I would have never believed they could.  Your program is a remarkable way of teaching the basics of multiplication.  It’s worth its weight in gold!

Donnalyn Yates was by far the best speaker at this conference. There were so many good ideas that I can use in my classroom now!

Success in the Neighborhood
Teaching my homeschooled children to memorize times tables for multiplication and division is amazingly easy and fun! My third grade, special needs son who has ADHD, dyslexia and other learning disorders, learned all of his multiplication and division math facts in two months. And he loved every minute of it since there were stories, pictures and rhymes. My youngest daughter is using the addition and subtraction math facts cards and loves clapping out the rhymes with her other elementary student friends. Even our ESL neighbor boy is learning his math facts, as well as English, using Memory Joggers. From reading your Memory Tips for Math Book, I now understand each child’s learning style which makes teaching so much easier. Please send me your new book on journal writing. The writing prompts sound terrific!
