Times Tables Rock Stars is a carefully sequenced programme of daily times tables practice for Years 2 - 6. Fluency in time tables and division is pivotal to develop children's knowledge and understanding of Maths. Each week concentrates on a different times table, with a recommended consolidation week for rehearsing the tables that have recently been practised every third week or so. Our children love the game based approach and particularly the inter year group / school competitions that we are able to set up.
