<p>Children are given a copy of the circus. They approach the teacher for spoken tables tests. The teacher fires quick questions at them and if their answers are correct the teacher says, “Yep you got it.” The kids race back to their desks to colour, learn the next tables and return for another test. The first day is fun and chaos as all children get their 1’s and 2’s. Then it slows down. After a few days the teacher knows exactly which kids know their tables. If a child struggles, the teacher can give them simple questions to help them along. MASTER and GRAND MASTER tests are at the front of the class. These positions hold prestige and children work for them. Teachers can be tough on the quickest kids to get them to strive for that perfect quick recall.</p>
