9x Times Tables – Year 4 Maths Unit

Help Year 4 students understand, explain and confidently recall the 9x facts with a cohesive teaching and practice sequence. This unit connects equal groups, repeated addition and arrays with three efficient strategies: using 10x then subtracting one group, the finger method, and the product-digit pattern.

The editable teaching presentation introduces each idea in manageable steps. Guided and independent worksheets give students space to show their thinking, while the Array Lab, Snowball Smash and Around the 9s Stadium add purposeful hands-on and partner practice. Before-and-after speed checks support fluency monitoring, and the two-page assessment covers facts, missing factors, reasoning, representations and application.
