Hello all,
What has worked best for you to teach a non verbal kid with severe autism multiplication tables? For somebody who is unable to respond to cues or demonstrate their learning.

Is anyone knows the easiest way of memorizing times tables. Please help me out.

My son is 21 and attends our local community college. He's there to get his GED because his high school "decided" to give him a local diploma because they felt he "couldn't do it".
