Hi

Yes I got my wish, I am currently working with Yr5 and have been based with the low ability group. I have printed some bingo games to play based on the 4xtables. I have also printed some number squares and will get the children to colour in the 4xtables at home. I just really wanted some other ideas Very Happy

have you seen the games boards that Tiki and others have made in the numeracy links, maybe you could make something similar

My Yr5s loved singing to one of the musical times tables it had a little quiz at the end which we did every day for about 4/5 weeks. we tallied the scores every day and I gave out some little prizes at the end.today they used their 4x for division and they were really quick so it looks like they retained it. Very Happy

Maths Invaders is also another great program based on the old space invaders. They type in the answer and the space ship shoots the aliens.

I have found the empty case at last!

It is called Musical Times Tables and the ISBN is1 871449 40 5

It is produced by Playtime Education.

Sorry I didn't find the tape.

The double and double method again is always a good one for the 4xTable. I find that children who are good at doubling love it because it feels like they already know it!

Jackie you'll find the games I designed here plus another 2 that Shirazee designed. You can change the wording to suit your school and children.
