Starter
Division facts for the 6 times table
Pre-requisite skills – to use this starter, drag this slide to the start of Day 1
Children choose six numbers from 1 to 12 to write in a 3 × 2 grid. Shuffle a set of multiples of 6 cards (6 to 72) and show one. Children think how many 6s are in this number and ring the answer if they have it. Encourage them to count up in 6s on their fingers if they do not know the fact by heart. Repeat until at least one child rings all their numbers.

Draw the triangle on the board; Ask children to work in pairs to write four number sentences that use all three numbers: two multiplications and two divisions, i.e. 9 × 4 = 36, 4 × 9 = 36, 36 ÷ 9 = 4 and 36 ÷ 4 = 9. Repeat for other triangles, e.g. 48, 6 and 8; 48, 12 and 4; 42, 6 and 7.

Objectives
Day 1
Know multiplication and division facts for the 9 times table.

7. Let’s count in 9s on the counting stick.
Day 1: Know multiplication and division facts for the 9 times table.
Let’s count in 9s on the counting stick. 9 18 27 36 45 54 63 72 81 90 99

How many 9s are in 27?
How many 9s are in 45?
How many 9s are in 81?
Year 4

8. Day 1: Know multiplication and division facts for the 9 times table.
We can use our hands to show the 9 times table!
You have 1 thumb standing up before the folded down finger, and
8 fingers after it, 1 ten and 8 ones making 18. That’s two 9s!
Hold out your hands, with palms facing toward you. Fold down the second finger from the left (including thumb).
Put your second finger back up and fold down your third finger. This gives the answer to
three 9s, can you see it?
Put your third finger back up and fold down your fourth finger. This gives the answer to four 9s! Carry on and find 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 nines.
Year 4

9. Day 1: Know multiplication and division facts for the 9 times table.
If all the multiples of 9 were marked on the grid what pattern would you see?
Year 4

10. Day 1: Know multiplication and division facts for the 9 times table.
Let’s see…
Why do 9s have this pattern?
What happens when 9 is added to any number on the grid…?
Year 4

11. Let’s look at the multiples of 9.
Day 1: Know multiplication and division facts for the 9 times table. 9 18 27 36 45 54 63 72 81 90 99
108
Let’s look at the multiples of 9.
What’s a good way to remember
11 × 9 and
12 × 9 ?
Up to 90, what happens to the 1s and the 10s each time?
What happens when we find the digit sum for each multiple?
For example 2 + 7, or 5 + 4?
Children can now go on to do differentiated GROUP ACTIVITIES. You can find Hamilton’s group activities in this unit’s TEACHING AND GROUP ACTIVITIES download on our website.

17. Let’s look at the multiples of 7…
Day 2: Begin to know multiplication and division facts for the 7 times table. 7 14 21 28 35 42 49 56 63 70 77 84
Let’s look at the multiples of 7…
Do the multiples of 7 all have a digit sum of 7, like the 9s we explored last time?
Not so many patterns with the 7 times table facts, but our activities will help us remember them!
Today would be a great day to use a problem-solving investigation – Table digital roots– as the group activity, which you can find in this unit’s IN-DEPTH
INVESTIGATION box on Hamilton’s website.
Alternatively, children can now go on to do differentiated GROUP ACTIVITIES. You can find Hamilton’s group activities in this unit’s TEACHING AND GROUP ACTIVITIES download on our website.

Day 3
Know the 11 and 12 times tables.
Year 4

20. Let’s look at the 11× table.
Day 3: Know the 11 and 12 times tables.
1 × 11 = 11
Let’s look at the 11× table.
2 × 11 = 22
3 × 11 = 33
Copy onto your whiteboard and continue up to 12 × 11.
4 × 11 = 44
5 × 11 = 55
6 × 11 = 66
7 × 11 = 77
Let’s check…
8 × 11 = 88
9 × 11 = 99
Did any patterns help you?
10 × 11 =
110
If we know 10 × 11 = 110 we can add 11 to find
11 × 11 and then 11 more to find 12 × 11.
11 × 11 =
121
12 × 11 =
132
Year 4

21. Day 3: Know the 11 and 12 times tables.
There’s a trick for 12 × 11.
Add the digits in 12.
1 + 2 = 3 so we put 3 between the 1 and 2 of 12 to get 132!
10 × 11 =
110
11 × 11 =
121
12 × 11 =
132
13 × 11 =
143
Try 13 × 11. Add the digits in 13.
1 + 3 = 4. Place 4 between the 1 and the 3 to get 143.
14 × 11 =
154
15 × 11 =
165
16 × 11 =
176
17 × 11 =
187
18 × 11 =
198
Try 14 × 11 and continue on to 18 × 11.
Let’s check those...
Year 4

22. Try the others like that.
Day 3: Know the 11 and 12 times tables.
1 × 12 = 12
Let’s try the 12× table.
We can add 12 each time…
2 × 12 = 24
3 × 12 = 36
4 × 12 = 48
…or can use our 10s and 2s.
5 × 12 = 60
6 × 12 = 72
7 × 12 = 84
8 × 12 = 96
For example, 7 × 12.
We know 7 × 10 = 70 and 7 × 2 = 14 so 7 × 12 = = 84.
9 × 12 =
108
10 × 12 =
120
11 × 12 =
132
Children can now go on to do differentiated GROUP ACTIVITIES. You can find Hamilton’s group activities in this unit’s TEACHING AND GROUP ACTIVITIES download on our website.
