Times-table groups helps children practise building fluency with times-table groups and equal groups. Read the short guide, solve one browser task, and print a fresh worksheet when more repetition is useful.

How to solve this

  • Read the times-table groups task carefully and underline the numbers you already know.
  • Use patterns in the table: square numbers repeat the same factor, and swap tasks keep the same product.
  • After solving, check whether the answer fits the number range and the question.

Examples

4 groups of 3

12

5 + 5 + 5 + 5

4 × 5 = 20

What can we do if times-table groups feels hard?

Use patterns in the table: square numbers repeat the same factor, and swap tasks keep the same product.

How much practice is enough?

A focused round of 5 to 10 minutes is usually enough for second graders. Stop while the child can still explain one step clearly.
