How to remember the 10 times table
Multiplying by 10 moves every digit one place to the left, so 7 × 10 = 70. Avoid saying “add a zero”, because that rule falls apart as soon as decimals arrive.
When children learn it
In England the 10 times table belongs to Year 2, and by the end of Year 4 every table up to 12 × 12 is expected to be known by heart. That deadline is set by the Multiplication Tables Check, the statutory online test taken in June: 25 questions, six seconds for each one, with the 6, 7, 8, 9 and 12 times tables weighted most heavily because they are the ones children find hardest.
Practise it in the game
The button above opens Times Tables Snake with every question locked to the 10 times table. A question rides on the snake's head, sweets around the arena carry possible answers, and eating the right one makes the snake grow. A wrong answer costs a few segments rather than ending the game, and there is no clock at all, so a child who is still working the answer out is never punished for being slow.
Reciting is not the same as knowing
A child can chant the 10 times table in order and still stall on 10 × 7 when it is asked on its own. Chanting helps at the start, but real fluency means any single fact coming back in about three seconds without counting up. Mixing the facts, which the game does as the snake grows, is what turns a chanted list into something usable in division and in word problems.
Frequently asked questions
What is the 10 times table?
It is the list of multiples of 10: 10 × 1 = 10, 10 × 2 = 20, 10 × 3 = 30 and so on up to 10 × 12 = 120.
What year do children learn the 10 times table?
Year 2 in England, under the National Curriculum. Every table up to 12 × 12 has to be secure by the end of Year 4, ready for the Multiplication Tables Check.
How can my child practise the 10 times table?
Short daily bursts beat one long session. Play the snake game locked to the 10 times table for a few minutes a day, then mix it with the tables already known so the facts have to be recalled rather than recited in order.
