Times Table Competition Resource Yr 4, 5 & 6

Sonic's Speed Times Tables is a great way to get your children to become fluent with their tables. I use it every Friday morning and I even race the children myself. There are nine weeks worth of question sheets for each of the 3 stages of the challenge. They are completely random. I set a time limit of 5 minutes to do as many as possible, if they complete them they get the certificate. I mark them but it would be possible to peer mark if that works for your class. I have a leader board display in the classroom to celebrate the children's achievements. They move on to the next stage when they have completed the challenge 5 times. My current champion is a Year 5 child who has done the 128 questions in 2mins 41seconds, he will be moving on to the mixed questions in the next few weeks.
You may wish to remove Sonic from the idea and replace it with something that would motivate your children.
I have found this to be highly motivational for the children, they are desperate to get their picture on the leader board and get a certificate in the Friday celebration assembly.
