Support fluency in multiplication with our Multiplication: Fast Facts Look & Write PowerPoint. This interactive activity helps students practise multiplication facts for 2, 3, 5 and 10 - building accuracy, speed and confidence with foundational number facts.

Each slide presents multiplication sums for students to solve. They write their answers on mini whiteboards or use the included recording sheet. Once all facts are complete, the answers appear so students can check and correct their work. The built-in disappearing timer bar adds an optional timed challenge to encourage quick recall.

Multiplication: Fast Facts Look & Write PowerPoint includes two versions - one with a 2-minute countdown timer and one without. The timer gradually disappears to help students manage their time. Also included is an editable slide so you can customise your own sets of facts, along with a PDF guide to adjust the timer duration as needed.
