Times Table Rockstars
At Colburn Community Primary School we use Times Table Rockstars to develop a love for times tables and pupils' knowledge of multiplication and division facts for all pupils from Y2-Y6 (Y1 following the introduction of repeated addition).
Times tables are recognised as essential to access many mathematical concepts – the more facts pupils remember, the easier it is for them to do more challenging calculations.
Times Table Rock Stars is a fun and challenging programme designed to help pupils master the times tables, using both speed and accuracy. Children have to work as quickly as they can to answer as many multiplication and division facts as they can in a set time. This both earns the children coins and improves their "studio speed".
We use Times Tables Rockstars in class, battling our friends, challenging our teachers and trying to improve our personal best studio speed. Each half term, we hold a times tables celebration assembly and we award children based on their effort and improvement.
Children are also encouraged to play at home and have login codes to access Times Table Rockstars from home.
