This method aids in reinforcing the students’ understanding of multiplication as repeated addition and helps them memorize the specific facts of the 9 times table. The circular layout provides a visual mnemonic device that may help students remember the sequence of numbers when multiplied by 9. Completing this exercise aims to build the students’ confidence and speed in working with multiplication, which is essential for their mathematical proficiency.
