Times tables

Recall and use multiplication and division facts for the 2, 5, and 10 multiplication tables

Lesson

Set out your lesson

Link equal groups to multiplication and related division facts.

Before teaching

Activity

Ask the learner to explain one prerequisite idea before starting. If uncertain, revisit it; graph order is not learner readiness.

Policy

Check readiness rather than assuming source graph order establishes attainment.

Printer, credit, and teaching notes
Instructions

Use counters if helpful. Put Show/G cards away for Try; log whether counters were used.

No Printer

Use the supplied stage cards on screen or scrap paper; adult key stays separate.

Materials are ready in each step. Use them on screen or print just the current step. Put teaching examples aside before the learner tries.

What this lesson covers and its limits

These are bounded opportunities, not learner attainment. Partial and blocked source requirements remain so.

  • partial: Recall and use multiplication and division facts for the 2, 5, and 10 multiplication tables

    Bounded objective: Link equal groups to multiplication and related division facts. Exact source 5 × 3 and 20 ÷ 5 were taught, so they cannot establish fresh recall. No timed fluency claim.

  • partial: Quickly answer 5 × 3 = 15 from memory

    Exact 5 × 3 is modelled, not tested as quick unaided recall.

  • partial: Quickly answer 20 ÷ 5 = 4 from memory

    Exact 20 ÷ 5 is guided, not tested as quick unaided recall.

  • partial: Recite the 2, 5, and 10 times tables fluently

    Optional table recitation with separate strategy notes; fluency only if actually observed.

  • partial: Can {{name}} quickly recall times table facts from the 2s, 5s, and 10s — like '5 × 6 = 30' or '20 ÷ 2 = 10' — forwards and backwards?

    Try offers unrehearsed-items-calculation-or-recall for the bounded objective; it does not establish every part of the source assessment. Exact source 5 × 3 and 20 ÷ 5 were taught, so they cannot establish fresh recall. No timed fluency claim.

  • Exact source 5 × 3 and 20 ÷ 5 were taught, so they cannot establish fresh recall. No timed fluency claim.

Kiri's Multiplication Matching Game

Open practice (new tab)
Before you open · source notes

A card-matching game targets products with adult-prepared decks. Use it as playful 2/5/10 table practice; card prep is a family job, not a built-in website deck.

Free, no sign-in. A teacher solution is on the same page, so use the student view with your child.

Before you open

After a few matches, ask for 2×, 5×, or 10× facts away from the cards. The page does not score fluency automatically.

Opening this link does not save learning or assess mastery.

Source, access and review notes

Public Illustrative Mathematics task page. The .html address responds HTTP 308 to this URL. An anonymous GET of this URL on 2026-11-11 returned HTTP 200 with no login or payment prompt. Where a teacher solution is present, it is on the same page as the student task; this check did not find a separate locked student view. An adult can use the student view section and should not read a solution aloud. Advertising was not observed in the fetched HTML text; that is not a browser, device, or ad-free guarantee. This is a paper or discussion task, not an automatically marked interactive game. Opening the link does not save practice or assess mastery. Diagrams on the page use missing or filename-only alt text, so they are not an accessible image equivalent. Accessibility still depends on an adult describing the picture.
