Our Year 3 Times Tables Practice Book is the perfect resource for teachers looking to help their students master their multiplication facts.

Improve your student’s reading comprehension and spelling with our 10 multi-faceted activities! These activities not only enhance inference, summary, sequencing, prediction, vocabulary, and background knowledge recall, but also integrate learning the Year 3 and 4 Common Exception Words. By highlighting and writing down these words while reading stories and answering questions, students improve their spelling and reading comprehension simultaneously. The included poster/handout serves as a helpful reference for all the Year 3 and 4 Common Exception Words. These activities can be used for reading comprehension practice or as standalone reading and spelling pages.
In this activity, children will learn to use a quick number trick to multiply numbers by four and eight. Learning the four and eight-times tables is important, but sometimes mental calculations can be useful to find multiplication facts too so, this activity focuses on using the skills of doubling to help find the answers to questions where we need to multiply by four. Children will partition, double and double again to find answers. For higher-ability children, there are 8 x table questions where children will partition, double, double again, double again and put it back together.
Included is a poster which shows the method for display and answers sheets so children can self-mark.
