Over 200 Duel Cards (Top Trumps style) to hand out to children in class as rewards and for educational fun. Children choose a card, complete the calculation and play against another player. Duel Card playing mat included too. My class love them and are obsessed with collecting them, I’ve never had such good behaviour management. Using my times table songs on my YouTube channel @LearningWithMrCole the children learn to sing in multiples and can speed through their tables too.

I give the children in my class between 3 and 5 minutes to complete their times table sheet. Timings are as follows: Trainee - 5 minutes Bronze - 5 minutes Silver - 3 minutes Gold - 3 minutes Platinum - 3 minutes Olympic Champions - 3 minutes The times tables vary for each level: Trainee - 2,5,10 (Just multiplication questions) Bronze - 2,3,4,5,10 (Just multiplication questions) Silver - 3,4,5,6,11 (Just multiplication questions) Gold - 7,8,9,12 (Just multiplication questions) Platinum - Mixture of all times table questions (Multiplication & Division questions) Olympic Champions - 3 minutes 100 times table questions (Multiplication & Division questions) Children complete their sheet in their given time. If they complete the sheet I mark it, if it is 100% correct, they move to the next level. If they do not complete the sheet they will not be able to move to the next level. I therefore either do not mark them, or mark them to see where that child is struggling. When they move up, I add colour to their name in the results table and pop the date in so I can track their progress. Each child has their own laminated name with a badger olympian logo which they can move up the stages. In this download, you get: A set of questions for each level. Editable name logos The Olympic display (levels and a banner) Results recording sheet Olympic Champion Certificate

As an extra idea, I sometimes do an extra lesson at the start where the children stick in a copy of some instructions (this could be one of my WAGOLLS) and they highlight and label the features of the text at the beginning of the week.
