Introducing the Multiplication Mastered Set 2
Multiplication Mastered is a fantastic educational kit from Thumbs up for Mastery, designed to children their teach times tables. Using an engaging flashcard system, it takes a child from the first stages of learning times tables to a level of mastery of all twelve multiplication tables in a fun and efficient way. At the same time, Multiplication Mastered teaches the related division facts as well as square numbers, turning the maths into a fun game, rather than a classroom chore.
It offers a highly accessible "one fact at a time" approach to learning multiplication tables while reinforcing existing knowledge. This method motivates players by allowing them to demonstrate success along the way, continually consolidating their knowledge as they play to achieve total mastery!
The game is facilitated by a helper (a parent, older child, or another person capable of leading) and is not time-competitive, giving players ample time to respond. The helper, who typically participates along with the child, provides a fun yet structured way for family members to engage in the development of a child’s skills.
A clever educational resource
Professionally presented with durable flashcards, the kit is ideal for younger children but also builds confidence in older children who may struggle with these skills. Progression only occurs once mastery is achieved. Mastery is demonstrated through the child’s ability to recall division facts related to each multiplication table. This is a key indicator of their capacity to understand and apply the tables. Reversing calculations and employing mathematical thinking is recognized as a higher-level skill than simply solving calculations in their conventional order.
Perfect for 10 minutes a day!
It doesn’t just test a child’s knowledge of times tables; it teaches them first! This interactive method of teaching motivates children to keep improving. Just 10 minutes a day will lead to progress with their mathematical abilities, and this can be tracked and encouraged using the provided charts, stickers, and certificates. Move forward at each individual child’s pace, and use fun to educate them without the need for a screen.
Set 2 teaches: x7, x8, x9, x11, x12. You can find Set 1 here.
Set two includes:6 packs of colour coordinated playing cards
x9, x11, x8, x7, x12, Square Numbers (each pack contains 56 cards, 43 question cards and 13 answer cards). The more difficult questions have more cards, and the easier questions have fewer cards to make a fun and efficient game for learning.
Rewards
As well as the cards, there are many accessories in the box which will help keep students motivated, which can be hung up on the wall to display. 1 practice chart and 48 stickers follow your journey through the country scene, add stickers as you go to record every time you play. 1 progress chart and 104 stickers encourage commitment, and gives children something to fill in so that they can see how far they’ve come along. Every time you master a new fact, you can add a sticker to the chart! There’s also 6 certificates for each Times Table. When you master a Times Table, mark your achievement with a Thumbs Up for Mastery Certificate!

"As a former Head of Mathematics in Secondary Schools I am aware of the difficulties encountered by many students in understanding mathematical relationships such as fractions and proportion without a secure knowledge of tables. It is a difficult skill to deliver to a large primary or secondary class and Multiplication Mastered provides a way in which parents and educational support staff can ensure this vital skill is mastered."
Chris Richards, Former Head of Mathematics at Ellen Wilkinson School (Ealing), Gumley House Convent School (Hounslow)
"As a teacher you have always known that times tables knowledge is fundamental to understanding mathematics and applying it. This kit is very clever: children are cementing their facts in tiny, fun steps. It doesn’t involve any screen time and creates a sociable and positive atmosphere in which to learn these essential facts."
