Here to help teachers avoid that extra bit of work and share work that has been successful in the schools I have worked in. I have worked in a variety of schools for 10 years. I have lead year 6, become head of Physical Education and taught in every year group. Certain work will be overly detailed with plans and resources. Some will simply be a useful powerpoint. My aim is to reduce workload. Happy to accept feedback.

Train your children to be ‘Ninja’ quick in this animated Times Table game.
In full screen, simply click on each slide to reveal a times table question. Children will need to write down the answer to the question before the number banishes.
Play this game with music from the movie ‘Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon’ in the background. The children love the music and it creates tension.
Note: click the slides to set speed of the game. Leave numbers running for normal speed or click to move it quicker. I usually move it quicker when the music gets tense. If children can’t get the answer- they should skip/leave a space in their workings. Also, this resource is editable so you can adapt it to your class.
Ideas for playing the game:
Children write down each answer (list format) as they view it. If they miss one- skip a line/space. Then at the end, go through all the answers verbally with children (not in full screen).
All children to have a Whiteboard. When they have the answer, they need to write it down and hold it up in the air to show the teacher. Confirm answer with them. Reward quick children over the game.
