At Your Own Pace
Kids practice the times tables at their own pace and work step by step toward a certificate.
Why Earn a Certificate?
Earning a certificate is more than just a fun milestone. It's proof that a child has truly mastered the basics of math. With regular times tables practice, multiplication facts get stored in long-term memory, so kids solve problems faster and with more confidence. That matters for tougher topics like division, fractions, and percentages. When the times tables are fully automatic, math takes less effort, leaving more room to think logically. That's why earning a certificate builds a strong foundation for success across the rest of elementary math.
Practicing the Times Tables in 3rd Grade
In 3rd grade, times tables practice starts with understanding what multiplication actually means. For example, 3 × 4 is first written out as 4 + 4 + 4. Working with groups, drawings, and jumps on the number line builds real understanding. The first goal is grasping what's happening, not speed. Then kids start with the "easy" times tables like 1, 2, 5, and 10. While practicing, kids also learn strategies. They discover the commutative property (3 × 4 is the same as 4 × 3), doubling and halving, and one more or one less. That way they can figure out new facts from facts they already know. By pairing understanding with strategies, kids gain confidence and learn the times tables step by step.
Practicing the Times Tables in 4th Grade
In 4th grade, kids practice the times tables so they can recall facts faster and faster. There's lots of practice with all the tables up through 10. Understanding still matters, but the focus shifts to speed and automaticity. While practicing, kids consciously apply different strategies. They use the commutative property, break harder problems into easier pieces, and use doubling or halving. They also learn smart ways to tackle bigger facts — for example, seeing 6 × 8 as 5 × 8 plus 1 × 8. The goal of times tables practice in 4th grade is mastery and confidence.
Practicing the Times Tables in 5th Grade
In 5th grade, the times tables are expected as basic knowledge. Kids who have fully mastered the times tables can earn the Gold Certificate. Attention shifts to applying multiplication and division in bigger, harder problems. The times tables stay an essential foundation. While doing math, kids combine different strategies. They use their multiplication knowledge for division problems, work with ratio tables, and split numbers to calculate efficiently. The connection between multiplication and division becomes clearer. By having the times tables fully automatic, kids keep mental space free for more complex math steps.
