My child is currently in year 2 and struggling with times tables recall (understands all the principles and can do them by writing them down).
We expect he’ll really struggle over the next few years having to learn all 12, because he’s currently only doing 2s, 5s and 10s.
The school uses TTRS from year 3 so I don’t want to introduce this now because then he will be “bored” of it next year when he is meant to be using it and competing against his class. I also don’t think the speed element that I’ve read about is that useful yet.
Are there any other apps/online games that would help? I’d be particularly looking for one where you can select the tables and preferably that keeps a record of results so we don’t need to look over his shoulder and put him under pressure.
He does seem to respond better to electronics rather than pen and paper (he’s not the best writer, so this takes a lot of effort for him)/our help (he gets frustrated being corrected by us, but does seem to learn from repetition even without extra input), but any other suggestions very welcome.
Thank you
