What's on this sheet
Double, then double again. 7 × 4 becomes double seven is fourteen, double fourteen is twenty-eight — two easy steps instead of one hard fact. This works for every entry in the table without exception, which makes the fours the best possible place for a child to learn that a hard fact can be broken into two facts they already have.
Why this sheet works
The reason it works is worth showing rather than asserting. Four rows of seven can be drawn, then a line drawn across the middle: two rows of seven above, two rows below. The array splits into two halves a child can already count, and the doubling strategy stops being a trick to remember and becomes something visible on paper.
How this one works
One question from a sheet like this one, worked a step at a time — with a sentence saying what just happened and why.
