Target Boards are an engaging and versatile tool for reinforcing mathematical skills with Year 6 students, specifically designed to practice identifying common factors, common multiples, and prime numbers. These boards are ideal for quick sessions at the beginning or end of a maths lesson and are well-suited for both whole class engagement and small group work. By displaying a board and providing students with whiteboards and pens, the teacher can facilitate a dynamic learning experience that encourages active participation and immediate practice of the concepts being taught.

The use of Target Boards allows for differentiated instruction, as teachers can easily tailor the complexity of tasks to suit varying levels of student ability. For instance, a teacher might instruct the class to find all the multiples of a particular number, such as 9, using the numbers displayed on the board. This activity not only helps students to consolidate their understanding of multiples but also primes and factors. It offers a fun and interactive way to challenge students, keeping them engaged while they sharpen their mathematical skills through retrieval practice.
