Games with the 3 times table cards
- Add up the digits of any answer in the 3 times table and you get 3, 6 or 9: 27 → 2 + 7 = 9.
- Count in threes with a rhythm: 3, 6, 9 – 12, 15, 18 – 21, 24, 27.
- Turn all the cards face down and pick two: does one show the answer to the other? Mix with the answer sides of another set for a matching game.
- Race the clock: how many of the 13 cards can you answer in one minute?
Learn the table first with the 3 times table practice sheet, and keep a multiplication chart nearby to check.
