Times Tables Competition

Posted on by Mr Poyton

Mrs Phelps led another exciting Times Tables Competition assembly this week. Classes in KS2 nominated new challengers from their class to be tested in front of an audience. It takes great aspiration and confidence to practise every day and then perform in front of others. Well done to all the competitors. Are you practising every day? Maybe you will be nominated next term!

Find out more by visiting last term’s competition gallery. You’ll find links to apps and websites to help you practise at home.

What’s your target table and what is your favourite way to practise?
