Six Seconds: Tables Check

Every June, Year 4 pupils in England take the multiplication tables check: 25 questions on screen, six seconds each. Six Seconds lets your family rehearse it at home, calmly, and shows you exactly which facts need a little more work. FULL REHEARSAL Three practice questions, then 25 questions with six seconds each and a three-second pause between them. Answers go in with an on-screen number pad, just as they do on the day. There are no ticks or crosses until the end, so the rehearsal feels like the real thing. On iPad, a keyboard works too. BUILT LIKE THE REAL CHECK Each rehearsal is put together fresh using the rules in the published assessment framework: questions from the 2 to 12 tables, more from the trickier 6, 7, 8, 9 and 12 tables, a limited number from the 2, 5 and 10 tables, and never a question alongside its reverse. THE FACT MAP All 121 questions the check can ask, in one grid. Each square shows how the last attempt went: fluent (under three seconds), slow, missed or not yet asked. Tap any square to see its history. At a glance you can see that 7 × 8 is solid but 8 × 7 still makes your child pause. TRICKY FACTS Ten questions chosen from the ones that need work: missed facts first, then slow ones, then any not yet asked. The answer appears straight after each question, so practice is short and useful. Five minutes a day is plenty.
