What's on this chart
A prime has exactly two factors — one and itself — and nothing below fifty makes that easier to see. A child can test each square by asking what divides it evenly: 7 has only 1 and 7, so it is prime; 8 has 1, 2, 4, and 8, so it is not. Doing that a dozen times builds the idea far better than a definition does.
Why this chart helps
The pattern starts here too. After 2, every prime is odd; after 5, none end in 5. Point at the marked squares and a child sees the evens and the fives drop out, which is the first shortcut for spotting primes higher up.
