Venn diagrams and times tables




Knowing your times tables is one of the important things we work on in Year 4. When thinking about two different times tables at once it can be quite a challenge. To help our understanding we have been using a practical Venn diagram where the answers from one times table go on one side, the answers from another times table go on the other side and the same answers that appear in both of them go in the middle.

Seeing it in this practical way where we have to physically place the numicon tiles really helps in securing the times tables facts.
