Multiplication Monday

October 20, 2017
Our pupils had a wonderful time on Hacton’s very first Multiplication Monday. To inspire the children to learn their times tables and get a real thirst for multiplication, each teacher designed a special activity to show that learning your times tables can be easy and, most importantly, fun! Children moved around classes in their phase groups and completed a series of challenges and tasks.

Times table tricks, multiplication treasure hunts, bowling, sticking arrays, card games and fitness challenges were just some of the activities that our pupils completed during the day. All of the children loved the opportunity to experience times tables in different ways and were surprised how much fun they could have learning their times tables. Equipped with their colourful times table pencils, the children are now ready to relish the challenge of their Times Table Journey as they travel confidently towards becoming multiplication masters.
