Times Tables Poems


My maths set have been working on poems to help them learn their tables. Here is their 8 times table poem.

One spider on a plate. One times eight equals eight

Two spiders on a trampoline. Two times eight is sixteen.

Three spiders on the door. Three times eight is twenty-four.

Four spiders in my shoe. Four times eight is thirty-two.

Five spiders being naughty. Five times eight equals forty.

Six spiders on the gate. Six times eight is forty-eight.

Seven spiders collecting sticks. Seven times eight is fifty-six.

Eight spiders running across the floor. Eight times eight is sixty-four.

Nine spiders standing in a queue. Nine times eight is seventy-two.

Ten spiders scaring Katie. Ten times eight equals eighty.

  2. Dear Chris,
    I hope you are well during this very scary time.
    I’ve set up a FREE Facebook page to help parents do homeschool during this unprecedented time.

    The page comprises of short videos (5 mins) giving parents/children with tips or activities they can do at home. I would love a video that inspires children to continue with their timestables learning. I was wondering you would be willing to record a short video for the page and of course we would reference back to your page.
    The page is:
