These worksheets have tons of times tables activities where you have to apply your knowledge of times tables to find the answers. Make sure also that your child has opportunities to apply these multiplication facts to solve math problems. You can also revise all multiplication facts in one sitting by filling in a blank multiplication chart (you can download a free copy to use over here).
In terms of good ways to practise times tables, math games involving times tables make a fun way to keep times tables ticking over. This is handy to refer to and you can also use it to easily keep track of which facts your child is working on. This free printable shows all the multiplication facts organised into separate multiplication tables (and all on one sheet!). Having to constantly practise times tables can get a bit repetitive, so it’s good to find lots of different ways to do this.įirst off, I would suggest downloading my printable multiplication tables. Once your child has worked at committing multiplication facts to memory, they still need to practise them. With the 9s, you quite literally have the answer the to the 9 times table at their finger tips! This really good printable from Oxford Owl shows you how. This is always a good way to double check whether a number is in the 9 times table or not.Īnd of course with the 9s, you can also use a cool trick with your fingers to find the answers. There are also lots of cool tricks and fun ways of working out the 9s.įor example, the digits in a multiple of 9 always add up to 9. Why jump to the 9s? There are a couple of reasons.īy the time children start on their 9s, they are already confident with their 10 times table and can use this to help them.įor example if you know that 10 x 3 is 30, 9 x 3 is just going to be 3 less than 30 (27). So just add one more 6 to that and you’ve got your answer. Want to calculate 6 x 3? Well you already know 6 x 2. Also, numbers in the 4 times table are all even, which is helpful too.Īgain with the 3s, use you can use your knowledge of the 2 times table to help you out. If a child knows their 2 times table, this will help them with the 4s.įor example, if you know that 6 x 2 = 12, then 6 x 4 will be double 12 (24).
The 4s have the advantage of being double the 2s.
After 5s, I would tackle the 4s, 3s and then the 9s.
