Once upon a time, there was a boy. He was 8 years old and his name was John. John was very intelligent, but he had a hard time learning numbers. No matter how hard he tried, he just could not memorize the tables in mathematics. It just did not stick in her head. One day his teacher told him a story. A story about how the tables were made in order and interconnected with numbers. How ten and eleven tables were easily made. After telling him the story, John was able to remember all of the tables in the right order because of the magic of storytelling. John could remember the story and with that, he could remember the tables.
