Six ways to practise
Explore the Game Modes
Start with something familiar, then try a different number range when you feel ready. Each question gives you four possible answers.
Times Tables
Choose a table from 1 to 12 or practise mixed tables. Start with a smaller multiplier range and build from there.
Number Bonds
Find the missing number that completes the total. Choose number bonds to 10, 20 or 100 using the range settings.
Division Facts
Connect division with multiplication facts you already know. Select one table or practise a mixture.
Doubles
Work out twice the number. To double 16, double 10 and 6 separately, then add 20 and 12 together.
Halves
Split an even number into two equal parts. All the questions in this mode have whole-number answers.
Square Numbers
Multiply a number by itself. Begin with squares up to 5², then explore larger numbers up to 12².

A quick recall challenge
Race the Clock
Already comfortable with the facts? Try a short timed round and see how accurately you can answer.
The clock keeps running during answer feedback. Changing the round length does not change the question range.
Room to think
Practise Without a Timer
Choose untimed practice to work through each calculation without a countdown.
Select “Finish round” whenever you are ready to see your results. There is no need to rush.
Learn from each round
Turn Mistakes into Practice
Your results show the questions you missed, the answers you chose and the correct answers with explanations. Select “Practise mistakes” to revisit those questions without a timer.
For parents and teachers
Keep Practice Focused
Choose one skill for each session. A child working on the 4 times table can practise that table first, then try related division questions.
If a learner starts guessing under time pressure, switch to untimed practice and talk through the calculations together.
