The Target 1 workbook takes your child from the 2s through to the 12s in five logical steps. You will see that there is no need to memorise times-tables as separate lists.

Once these steps are complete, and your child reaches each target score within the assigned time limits, they will be ready to try the five division challenges - each one mirroring the multiplication tasks.

Each Target Practice workbook is divided into ten challenges, with target scores and time limits. The Target Extra section at the back of each book contains several repeat challenges, enabling your child to hit that target score should they miss out the first time.

Target 1's ten steps are as follows:

Target 1a: 2s, 10s & 5s

Target 1b: 3s & 4s

Target 1c: Square Numbers

Target 1d: The Easy 11s

Target 1e: The Deadly Eleven

Target 1f: 2s, 10s & 5s Division

Target 1g: 3s & 4s Division

Target 1h: Square Numbers Division

Target 1i: The Easy 11s Division

Target 1j: The Deadly Eleven Division

Longer multiplication and division challenges will become a regular reality in your child's education. Without rapid recall of the tables, struggles will be inevitable.

As parents, we must choose the appropriate foundations if we are to expect growth in our children's mathematical confidence.

I strongly recommend starting with this workbook.

Launch their potential.
