An excellent way to monitor and assess pupils' progress in times tables!

Consisting of 100 times tables questions, pupils have up to 10 minutes to complete the Torture Tables Challenge. Pupils may indicate that they have finished before this time, but their time is recorded and they cannot return to the challenge! Once the time is up, the teacher marks the Torture Tables Challenges, recording each pupil's score. Teachers may choose to post the average score on a display and share each pupils' score individually.

Since producing this resource in September 2015, my Year 5 class have improved their scores significantly across the year, with pupils relishing the challenge of beating their own score, as well as trying to beat Year 6! Pupils love the challenge and are thrilled when they see their progress across the year. I have seen a notable improvement in pupils' skills in mental maths, as well as a clear development in their resilience and concentration in Numeracy.

This resource will be invaluable in preparation for the Year 6 SATs Times Tables Tests.

In this pack, I have included the editable Torture Table template, as well as two certificate templates. One certificate is awarded to pupils that reach 100% and the other is for pupils with the most improved score.

Any feedback is welcome and I hope you and your class enjoy this activity.
