A set of A5 booklets each containing 13 exercises for practising tables from 2-12. Devised for homework, but could equally be used as a short starter activity in maths lessons. Books can be issued to pupils according to their existing knowledge of tables, working from the easier ones (10, 5, 2, 11) through to the more difficult ones (3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12). Stickers/team points can be awarded for completing a book and moving up to the next level. Good for getting parents involved!
The booklets need to be printed double-sided onto A4 paper (4 sheets needed) . Pupils could be given the task of assembling them as booklets.
Starter activities include partner work for practising tables and a whole class tables activity using loop cards (link to loop card generator supplied). The presentation includes, on slide 4, a clear video demonstration on how to use tables to factorise numbers. It ends with an exhortation to pupils to learn their tables in order to be able to factorise! The independent work, linked to the presentation, consists of a worksheet with 3 exercises: 2 on tables, and one where pupils practise factorising numbers.
A starter activity for place value lessons. Pupils have to determine the value of underlined digits in increasingly large numbers.
