What is the 1 times table?
The 1 times table shows that any number multiplied by 1 stays the same, for example 6 × 1 = 6 and 1 × 6 = 6.
Why does multiplying by 1 keep the number the same?
Multiplying by 1 means you have one group of that number, so you still have the same amount as you started with.
How can I help a child learn the 1 times table at home?
Use simple objects like coins or blocks and make one group each time, then say the fact aloud, such as “one group of 4 is 4”. Repeat with different numbers.
