A simple plan that works

  1. Learn the easy ones first: 10, 2 and 5. They make the rest easier.
  2. Use patterns: 4 is double 2, 8 is double 4, 9s add up to 9, and every fact has a twin (3 ร— 7 = 7 ร— 3), so there are far fewer facts to learn than it seems.
  3. Practise five minutes a day: play one round of the game on a table, then a mixed round.
  4. Test for speed: take the times tables test (25 questions, 6 seconds each) or a mad minute sheet. Aim for an answer in about 3 seconds.
  5. Keep the tricky facts on the fridge and say them aloud at breakfast.

Questions parents ask

What is the fastest way to learn times tables?

Learn them in a sensible order (10, 2, 5, then 3, 4, 8, then 6, 7, 9, 11, 12), use patterns and tricks for each table, and practise for five minutes a day with quick games. Recall comes from little and often, not long sessions.

Which times tables are the hardest?

Most children find 6 ร— 7, 6 ร— 8, 7 ร— 8, 8 ร— 9 and 7 ร— 7 the trickiest. Learn these as facts on their own, and use known facts to help: 7 ร— 8 = 56 is 5, 6, 7, 8 in order.

At what age should children know their times tables?

Most children learn the 2, 5 and 10 times tables at about ages 6โ€“7, and all tables to 12 ร— 12 by about ages 9โ€“10.

Is a multiplication game better than flash cards?

Games and flash cards both work. Games add instant feedback, a timer and rewards, which keeps practice going. Mix both, and use a printable chart for spotting patterns.

Are these resources free?

Yes. All games, worksheets and charts here are free, with no sign-up and no adverts.
