Multiplication Worksheet and Problems
Begin by reviewing the basic concept of multiplication. Explain that multiplication is a way to add a number multiple times. For example, 3 x 4 means 3 + 3 + 3 + 3.
Introduce the multiplication table, which shows the product of all possible combinations of numbers from 1 to 10.
Provide examples of how to use the multiplication table to find the product of two numbers. For example, to find 3 x 4, look for the 3 on the left side of the table and the 4 on the top of the table. The product can be found where the two numbers intersect on the table, which is 12.

Practice problems:
3 x 4 =
5 x 6 =
7 x 8 =
9 x 10 =
2 x 3 =
Check the answers with the student or have them check their own work. The answers for the above examples are : 12, 30, 56, 90, 6
As the student becomes more comfortable with multiplication, provide more challenging problems for them to solve.
Encourage them to practice regularly.
Remember that this worksheet is a simple example, and you can adjust it to fit your specific needs. Also, you can create more complex problems, use larger numbers and add more rows to the table.
