4 differentiated times table squares.
I use these twice a week to assess times table knowledge and the children also use Superhero Times Tables, Times Table Rockstars, BBC times table songs and chants to practice.
We started by giving them 15 minutes and after a short period we have reduced the time and now have 10 minutes to complete.
Level 1- Timestable in easiest order
Level 2- 3-12 in order
Level 3- Mixed
Level 4- Using the inverse mixed.
With the times table test coming around, these have really supported children developing and securing their knowledge. Eventually we will reduce the time so they have the time limit the same as the test to support and build rapid recall and will use laptops/ IPads to complete to get the children ready for the online test.
It is only 6 seconds per question and 25 questions and they could be anything so we have found this supports building confidence and speed across all of them.
Rounding Puzzle- Round to the nearest 10, 100 and 1000. Used as a challenge for Middle Attainers.
Can be edited on the document for other Years. I have used this for my Year 4 class.
