Times Tables Games
Learning multiplication facts can be a pain, but not when you have access to lots of cool times tables games which will enable you to practise while having fun. It's important to get your knowledge of times tables really secure, with instant recall of the facts up to at least 10 x 10. This is because future maths skills build on this knowledge, and without it you will struggle later on. It's a good idea to keep practising from time to time too, because if you don't use it you might lose it!
Hit the Button
You can choose which times table you want to practise up to 10x or a mixed set. You can also choose to hit the answer or to be shown the answer and then hit the question. You have one minute to see how many you can get right. You need to keep an eye on the score in order to spot when you've got an answer wrong. WMNet. |
