6 Times Table Practice

Master the 6 times table with retrieval-first drills and mixed recall practice.

Build 6× fluency for faster multiplication and inverse division confidence.

Curriculum focus: secure recall of 6× facts and connected division facts.

6 times table

All facts from 6×1 to 6×12.

6 × 1 = 6

6 × 2 = 12

6 × 3 = 18

6 × 4 = 24

6 × 5 = 30

6 × 6 = 36

6 × 7 = 42

6 × 8 = 48

6 × 9 = 54

6 × 10 = 60

6 × 11 = 66

6 × 12 = 72

The 6 times table becomes easier when children connect it to 3x doubled and to known 5x facts plus one more group.

Start: say the 6 times table in order once, then close the pattern and answer mixed facts.
Build: connect each 6x fact to a matching division fact.
Stretch: answer the trickiest facts after a short pause, not from a memorised chant.

6 x 7 = 42

6 x 8 = 48

54 / 6 = 9

For the 6 times table, run one focused round, then mix in two easier tables so recall transfers beyond the page order.
The child can answer facts out of order, not only in a chant.
The child can use one multiplication fact to answer a related division fact.
