These timetable bookmarks helped me so much!

Learning times tables is honestly one of those things which feel like can take soo long to teach!

But without them, your child’s mathematics journey can be a big uphill battle.

The thing with learning them is, it needs consistency. Like your child NEEDS to learn them everyday! Not only everyday. But multiple times a day to really solidify their new found knowledge and avoid forgetting it within a week!

That’s why I’ve created these timetable bookmarks. Simply download, print and go!

Though I would HIGHLY recommend laminating them too! That way not only will they stand the test of time but they can also be used with multiple children. Win!

A Really simple way to keep your child going over the time table they’re learning.

If you have an avid reader like me, this is the perfect way to incorporate a little boost throughout the day. It just serves as an opportunity for them to go over them once again.

Even if your child isn’t likely to read independently, stick one into their read aloud of the day and once they’ve read to you, they can recap their timetable for a little bit.

In fact, even if you don’t ask them to, it’s likely they will just go over it once they see it there.

Teaching time tables, My advice:

My advice as a homeschool mum of 6 who has taught almost all of her kids their times tables is to firstly focus on 1 time table at a time. Don’t try doing a few of the easier ones together. Like 5 and 10 time tables etc.

Focus on 1 and be really thorough with it until your child is able to answer quick fire questions without hesitation or mistakes. It may take time but the more time you spend on it per day the quicker they will pick it up.

That being said, doing too much of anything can be a bore so try not to overdo it. It’s important to find a balance.

Small adaptations like using timetable bookmarks takes the pressure off and makes the child feel like they’re in charge since they are going over it without being told or encouraged.

Head over and download our time table posters too. Laminate them for better durability.

It’s a good idea to have the time table poster on display so your child can refer back to it throughout the day.
