A fun way to test children’s spelling and times tables with Gladiator Theme Tune. Children back-to-back on their chair at the front.   Three, Two, One – the times table or spelling is said, both children see who can write the answer the fastest? While the two are writing their times table, the rest of the class writing it on their boards and keeping it down. Or Into school houses with whiteboards. Three, Two, One – the times table is said, each team see who can write the answer the fastest?
