Year 5 Times Tables Fun!

This week in Year 5 we have been trying extra hard to remember our times tables up to 12x12. Miss Henry has showed us two new strategies to help us learn! We had lots of fun outside trying out the strategies with a partner.

The first strategy we used was a clapping game. Each time you joined your hands together you had to chant either the 7, 8 or 9 times tables.

The next strategy we used was a chanting game. With our partner we had to chant either the 6, 7, 8 or 9 times table. One person was the leader and the other person followed. If our partner said the times table faster, we had to do it faster. If our partner changed their voice, we had to too! if our partner began to do crazy movements, we did too! Trying to keep up was a lot of fun!

We had to keep each other on track and help each other identify mistakes!

Can you guess who the leaders are in these videos?
