Single Grid 5 x 5

The Single Grid exercises by KS2Gems are a series of rapid multiplication challenges tailored for Year 4 students to enhance their arithmetic skills. Each sheet presents a 5x5 grid, with the top row and the leftmost column populated with numbers. The students' task is to complete the grid by multiplying these numbers, filling in the empty cells with the correct products. The activity is designed as a timed challenge, where students are given one minute to fill in as many cells as possible, aiming for a perfect score of 25.

These exercises serve not only to reinforce multiplication facts but also to encourage speed and accuracy in mental arithmetic. Each sheet features a different set of numbers, ensuring varied practice and helping to prevent memorisation of specific answers. To track progress, there's a space provided for the date and the student's name, along with a section to record the score out of 25. The Single Grid sheets are an engaging way for students to practice their multiplication tables and to monitor their improvement over time.
