The Even Bigger Times Table Challenge 6

The Even Bigger Times Table Challenge 6 is a rigorous and fast-paced test designed to assess the arithmetic proficiency of Year 6 students. This challenge, created by KS2Gems in 2020, comprises a comprehensive set of 100 arithmetic problems that students must attempt to complete within a 5-minute time frame. The questions cover a variety of mathematical operations including square roots, squaring numbers, division, multiplication, and cube roots, all aimed at testing the students' quick recall of times tables and their ability to apply this knowledge to more complex calculations.

The worksheet is structured to push the boundaries of the students' numerical agility and includes problems such as finding the square root of 9, squaring the number 15, and dividing 450 by 9. It also challenges students with questions like multiplying 100 by 7, calculating the cube of 10, and dividing 1.2 by 12. Upon completion, the time taken is noted, especially if it is less than the allotted 5 minutes, and the students' scores are tallied out of 100. This challenge not only serves as a tool for teachers to gauge their pupils' understanding and speed with numbers but also helps students to build confidence in their mathematical abilities.
