Why is the 5 times table easy?

The answers alternate ending in 5 and 0, and each is half of a 10s fact. Most children learn it right after the 2s and 10s.

Are the facts shuffled?

Yes. In-order practice teaches the chant; shuffled practice teaches recall, which is what tests and later maths need.

How to teach this

Two checks make the 5s easy: the answer ends in 0 or 5, and it is half of the 10s fact. Even numbers times 5 end in 0; odd numbers times 5 end in 5. Say that rule out loud once and your child will use it.

Watch for: Kids write an answer ending in 2 or 7. Every 5s answer ends in 0 or 5; anything else is wrong. Kids count by fives from the start every time. The half-of-ten shortcut is faster: half of 80 is 40.
