Times tables 1 to 12
The times tables run from 1 x 1 to 12 x 12. Use the chart below to find every fact, highlight patterns and select a product with its commutative pair. For fluent recall, a child should know each answer automatically rather than count through the table.
For parents and carers, the best approach is short, regular practice. Start with the 2s, 5s and 10s, use doubling to reach the 4s and 8s, then focus on the smaller group of facts that remain unfamiliar.

The Year 4 Multiplication Tables Check
The statutory Year 4 Multiplication Tables Check is taken in June. It contains 25 questions, with six seconds for each answer, and gives more weight to the 6, 7, 8, 9 and 12 times tables.
The real goal is automatic recall. If a child reaches 7 x 8 by counting up in sevens, the next step is practising until 56 comes to mind straight away.
