Times Tables, Multiplication and Division
In Year 4, children are expected to know all their multiplication and division facts up to 12 x 12, and they take a national check on this at the end of the year. Alongside quick recall, they start to use those facts in bigger ways: dividing two-digit numbers with remainders, multiplying by 10 and 100, finding factor pairs, and working out longer multiplications on paper. Getting comfortable here makes the maths in Years 5 and 6 far less of a struggle.
Practise Times Tables, Multiplication and Division
Have a guess, even if you're not sure. Get one wrong and we'll show you why, so every miss is a chance to learn.
Timed practice
The same practice, just with a gentle clock. Pick a length and see how many you can answer.
Each quiz asks one question at a time and builds up in small steps, from straight times-table recall to methods like short multiplication and the distributive law. If your child picks the wrong answer, they get a gentle hint rather than just a cross, so they can think again and understand where it went wrong. The focus is on steady practice and real understanding, not speed for its own sake.
BrightWren is completely free, with no account and no sign-up. It works on any phone, tablet or computer, so your child can practise wherever they are, whenever suits you.
