How to learn or teach the table of 15 to kids?

First ask the students "There are 15 apples and 15 bananas, how many fruits are there?". Let them solve the problem using any method they know, if they known double digit addition, it will be quite easy from there on. If not, it is a great way to introduce them to double digit addition. As you keep on adding different types of fruits, it will be more difficult to count them on fingers; in that moment tell them to solve using double digit addition. Use the sample lesson plan given below.

(i) If there are two packs with 16 toffees each, ask the children to find the total number of toffees.

   15

+ 15

------

 30

-------

 15 times two (or 2 fifteens) give 30. 

That is, 15x 2 = 30

Here tell the child that when we have 2 fifteens, we get a thirty. Then make the child say it loud :  15 times two (or 2 fifteens) is 30. 

That is, 15x 2 = 30

(ii) If there are 3 packs with 15 cookies each. Ask the children to find the total number of cookies.
