Taking a set of cards in order, children can run through the times table to see the ‘progression’ of the table – practising and learning the table along the way.  The ‘workings’ shown on the reverse of the card – along with the answer – reinforce learning. When the child feels more confident with the table, the cards can be shuffled so that the answers are not sequential, providing a more stimulating mental workout.

With Flip-It, children don’t just have to have a good memory in order to succeed!
