About Times tables games
Why times tables matter
Fluent multiplication underpins division, fractions, area and almost every later topic in maths. When recall becomes automatic, children free up their thinking for the harder reasoning a problem really needs — instead of getting stuck working out 7 × 8 first.
How the game helps
Multiplication Match presents short, focused rounds rather than long worksheets. Correct pairs are gently reinforced and the difficulty adapts, so a child who is just starting with the 2s, 5s and 10s is never thrown into the 12s before they are ready.
What your child will practise
- Rapid recall of multiplication facts
- Spotting the link between a times-table fact and its answer
- Building up from the 2s, 5s and 10s towards the trickier tables
- Staying calm and focused with short, rewarding rounds
Starts at an easy level and adapts as your child grows in confidence.
