FEEDBACK TODAY:
“I came across your youtube videos. While I was intrigued by all of them, the tic tac toe for 3′s and 7′s is what really got my attention. So, this morning I took a piece of paper and our telephone and showed her (my 3rd grader) your easy method during breakfast. Now as a parent, you know that there’s not much time on a school morning for breakfast, let alone 2 multiplication lessons. That’s how easy you made learning these times tables. Before breakfast was finished, my daughter was able to draw the tic tac toe tables herself and was excited about it! On the short 8 min ride to school I gave her my cell phone and after reviewing the 3′s and 7′s I showed her the 9′s and Wow! She did it just like that! I’m amazed that she learned this just from one of your videos. Thank you for seeing that children are wonderful learners who learn better outside the box. I am definitely going to be using more of your techniques in helping my daughter (and me too); can’t wait to help her create her own (EZ Times Table) chart.”
Thank You, Stephanie Mark, Relieved Mom of a Third Grader

This MisterNumbers Right Brain Math video below will help kids have fun learning the times tables

A dial pad on any phone is a great aid in learning the times tables for the Ones, Threes, Sevens, & Nines.

Can you picture the numbers on a phone dial pad?

If so, it can help you learn your times tables! The numbers you see are the ones-digits (Onesies) for the Ones, Threes, Sevens, and Nines times tables. See a dial pad in your mind and you are on your way.

A dial pad of any phone can be an aid to learning the times tables, and a close up. This will show the ones digits (Onesies) of the Ones Times Table, the Threes times table, the Sevens times table, and the Nines Times Table. It makes it easy to figure out the rest and memorize the times tables.

ONES ON any PHONE DIAL PAD:
These are the Ones-Digits or “Onesies” when counting by ONES. Easy.

THREES Times Table show up when the phone is turned to the left.

Threes times table revealed on a phone dial pad when the phone is turned to the left 90 degrees. The first picture is the dial pad to the left. The middle picture is the numbers right side up The right picture has the tens-digits  (tensies) added to create the THREES times table. Note the pattern of the tens-digits is 0-0-0,   1-1-1,   2-2-2

3 6 9          03  06  09                     33  36  39

Sevens times table revealed on a phone dial pad when the phone is turned to the right. The first picture is the dial pad turned to the right. The middle picture is the numbers right side up. The right picture has the tens-digits  (tensies) added to create the NINES times table. Note the pattern of the tens-digits is Same-UP-UP, Same-UP-UP, Same-UP-UP (0-1-2,  2-3-4,  4-5-6).

NINES show up when the phone is turned upside down

Nines times table are revealed on a phone dial pad when the phone is turned upside down. The first picture is the dial pad upside down. The middle picture is the numbers right side up. Notice that the nines and sixes reverse upside down. The right picture has the tens-digits  (tensies) added to create the NINES times table. Note the pattern of the tens-digits are 0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8.

Math GIGGLES comment yesterday on Youtube: “The “onesies” made my son giggle so much that he had to comment. What he didn’t say is how you “blew his mind” with all the tricks you teach. Thanks for posting the lessons. I had never been taught with the number wheel or tic-tac-toe format; I think these may just be the right tools for him to get over the hump of “memorizing” his multiplication tables.“ -Dave Taylor
Original comment yesterday by Dave’s son: “Onesies 1:07 :0 lol”  (See video below)

Mister Numbers replies: I very intentionally give the Ones-Digits a nickname of the Onesies, and the Tens-Digits a nickname of the Tensies.

Ones-digits and Tens-digits are simple concepts with awkward formal names. Let’s be friends with these cool ideas that show us so many fun patterns that are learning tools. Onesies and Tensies are used in all Pattern Play Math to create the patterns.  I hope the nicknames of “Onesies” and “Tensies” catch on and helps kids learn math! The Patterns are so cool and help make understanding and learning math easier -MisterNumbers

What are parents and teachers saying about the Right Brain Math book by Tom Biesanz, aka MisterNumbers, on Amazon?

Amazon feedback for Right Brain Math, 4.9 stars
Right Brain Math: A Fun, Easy, Visual Approach to Math

“It’s already a big hit with my favorite kiddos! Thank you for giving a non-visually-oriented math geek some fun tricks to show the visual-spatial kids in my life.” –Karynna Lynne

“Has already helped my little girl. Very good book.” –Alfredo Spencer

“After using the inital table with my students I decided I should get the DVD also. MrNumbers answered the phone and took care of the order. I got the DVD and it is awesome. My kids love what little we have done. They are learning and having fun!” –Delia Ybarra

“All I can say is THANKS!! I’ve needed a tool like this for my child.” –Shannon Staton

“The order arrived promptly and complete…even with extra worksheets. THANKS!” –Michelle Hadfield

“It is a interesting way of teaching math. Creative and seems fun.” -Semi Kim

“Book arrived faster than advertised, and was just what was promised.” –David Sailer

“He accidentally sent me two books, and told me to just keep the second one for some one who needs it. Excellent seller, I feel like he is more concerned with children learning than money. Book is great, shipping was fast, and service was courteous.” –Mandy Cole

“I like this innovative way to use patterns to answer multiplication problems. I only wish a more advanced book could be created as well. My kids found it to be neat but they ran through it too fast because they are older 10 – 13. If younger children use this method, it will benefit them really well.” -Kenyatta Edwards

5.0 out of 5 stars Wish This Book Was Available When I Was In School! “Finally, a book written for right brained thinkers! Studies have shown that math is the most difficult subject for people to learn. It’s one of the main reasons students fail or drop out of college or even high school. This is especially true if you’re a creative person. You may excel at writing, reading, music, or other right brained subjects but math is a constant struggle.
In Right Brain Math: A Fun, Easy, Visual Approach to Math the author makes learning basic math fun and easy by using a visual approach. Getting kids to memorize multiplication tables and other math problems isn’t really learning, it’s just memorizing. But when they can SEE the patterns it all makes sense. Once they have a solid foundation in the basics it makes learning higher math much easier.”

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, fun and simple! “I must say that I fell in love with Right Brain Math! This is an amazing easy to understand visual approach to learning math. The connection between patterns and numbers really makes it easy to understand. I am so happy to actually able to recognize patterns, which makes learning addition, subtraction, multiplication and division easier. Thanks for showing me new strategies to make numbers fun and simple.” -Kim Hale

I highly recommend MisterNumbers Pattern Play Math DVD as a companion to the Right Brain Math book. The hour long DVD goes through most of the worksheets in the book simply and clearly. The Right Brain Math book is $12.95 on Amazon. You can get the combo of the Right Brain Math book and MisterNumbers Pattern Play Math DVD for $17.95 on the website ($3.95 shipping).

“I’m so glad I found your program.  My 10 year old daughter has had a terrible time with math.  On the day that I discovered your innovative approach, I bought the program and sat down with her to set up the multiplication table chart.  She stayed focused for the hour it took to do the chart.  A full hour without her attention waning was nothing short of a miracle.  It took longer for us to do the chart because we had to decided which number (and its row) should be written in which color on the chart. lol  Did you know that sixes are supposed to be blue?  Neither did I! Thanks for sharing your talents for teaching math!” -Cauleen Stradling

p.s. YOU can still make the SIXES any color YOU like (and all the other numbers in the worksheets in the Right Brain Math book and ebook).
