About this deal

The "Incorrect swipes" screen shows a count of incorrect swipes for each times table to help identify weaknesses.

Two enjoyable games in one in this beautifully illustrated, quality, educational game made in Britain by Orchard Toys. On iOS, Times Tables Hero can connect to Game Center, which will let players compare their achievements and leaderboard position with players across the world or just their friends. Still, it doesn't involve any social media functionality when used within this app. Note that other apps could use iMessage alongside Game Center, so this is not a universal statement. If the answer is correct the green light comes on and if the answer is wrong the red light comes on.Times Tables Hero includes the features we like to see for an app to maximise its potential in the classroom. Multiple users can play the app under their names to compete on the leaderboards. There is a practice mode for teachers to use the app in tuition and class discussion. By customising the length of games, the numbers covered, and other aspects of the challenge, teachers can match the play experience to their lesson objectives. Pricing - It’s okay and better than other educational games, but still fairly pricy for my school (500+ pupils). You can only pay in groups of 190 pupils which frankly doesn’t fit any school except YrR, Yr1, Yr2, which brings me to my next point. A typical target for kids to know all of the times tables is the age of eight, but many kids don't meet this target. Times Tables Hero's design is age-neutral enough for kids of any age to play and learn from it. You can even create a family leaderboard by adding family members to promote healthy competition to see who is the fastest multiplier. A selection of apps to help kids build their fluency in times tables is ideal, and Times Tables Hero's uniqueness makes it an excellent choice to have among them. The app feels polished through out, with a firm consistency in its design. It will be practice that helps your kids reach the achievement of Times Tables Hero, but making the experience as fun as possible facilitates it. The Times Table Hero app does this well, and it is well worth the five stars awarded in this review.

Times tables apps are among the most common educational apps, and it isn't often that a new one is released that feels fresh. Times Tables Hero's swipe interaction works much better than you might expect. Its simple elegance makes playing the app effortless and encourages 'just one more go' as the player feels compelled to improve their standing on the leaderboard or earn a new achievement. Competing with friends and family on the leaderboards is a good motivator for many kids and leads to fun rivalry. The app gives kids a chance to inspect the cards in advance and memorise them. What might seem a bit like cheating is a sneaky way of getting kids to revise a bit more! Times Tables Hero is a times table practice app. It distinguishes itself from other apps with a 'swipe left or right' interaction made popular in quite different apps. Student engagement - absolutely TERRIBLE! Students aren’t engaged for long, after getting excitement from new app, and trying it out... but anyway my point is students aren’t motivated enough. We need more updates in the shop: one of my friends bought all the football kits (he’s a whiz at football) and now there isn’t much for him to buy. Needs improvement in this section. Turning learning into a game can make it more enjoyable for children. You can use flashcards, interactive apps, or online games that focus on multiplication. Singing songs, practicing with real-life examples (like counting groups of objects), or using visual aids like charts can also make the learning process more engaging. Tailor the approach to your child's interests to keep them motivated. How often should my child practice times tables to become proficient?So the app is great I’ve been thinking. When I come online not most people are online mostly offline, so I am mostly bored alone. I’ve been learning maths. Division has been hard for me, on this app. I made a few plans for the app, but I forget them so I’m not sharin’ them now. Sorry or grammar mistakes. Every aspect of the game is designed to ensure that kids develop a deeper understanding of multiplication and get the practice needed to master it. By varying the tasks and the ways the times tables are presented, kids not only stay motivated, but get the opportunity to develop their abilities in different contexts. Squeebles Times Tables is a beautifully designed app to learn times tables and also helps students practice their times tables in the most fun and interactive way possible. Children learn whilst helping Whizz rescue the Squeebles from the clutches of the nasty maths monster.
