Hit the Button is an interactive maths game with quick fire questions on number bonds, times tables, doubling and halving, multiples, division facts and square numbers. The games which are against the clock challenge and develop a child's mental maths skills.
Designed for 6 to 11 years olds, the activities can be matched to appropriate mathematical ability. Regular use of Hit the Button can help children to sharpen their recall of vital number facts in a fun way and learning multiplication tables need not be boring.
Lots of games to support the teaching of multiplication and division.
Learning multiplication facts can be a pain, but not when you have access to lots of cool times tables games which will enable you to practise while having fun. It's important to get your knowledge of times tables really secure, with instant recall of the facts up to at least 10 x 10. This is because future maths skills build on this knowledge, and without it you will struggle later on. It's a good idea to keep practising from time to time too, because if you don't use it you might lose it!
