Mastering the 6s: The Even Team
Welcome to the 6s! Since 6 is an even number, all of its multiples in this level (6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36) are also even. This is a great way to check your work!
🎮 How to Play
The challenge is heating up! Stay sharp as you transition between ordered logic and random recall in the 6s level.
Round 1: Logical Lining
Place the answers in order. This helps your brain see the "plus 6" relationship between each equation.
Round 2: Instinct Training
When the 6s are shuffled, rely on your visual memory. Drag the blocks quickly to build your instant recall skills.
Why This Game Works for the 6s
The 6 times table is often the first "challenge" table students encounter. Our Scaffolded Multiplication Game breaks down this challenge into manageable steps. By focusing on $6 \times 1$ to $6 \times 6$, students build confidence with the core facts before moving on to more complex multiplication.
Learn the 6 Times Table
The 6 times table combines ideas from the
2 times table
and the
3 times table,
creating an important bridge between basic and more advanced multiplication skills.
The 6 times table is often the first table students find challenging.
It combines earlier knowledge from the 2 and 3 times tables.
With the right practice, students can master it step by step.
What Is the 6 Times Table?
The 6 times table shows the result of multiplying numbers by 6.
For example:
6 × 1 = 6
6 × 2 = 12
6 × 3 = 18
It helps students see how different multiplication facts are connected.
Why the 6 Times Table Is Important
Learning the 6 times table helps students:
- Combine existing math knowledge
- Prepare for higher-level multiplication
- Develop flexible thinking
It plays an important role in division and problem-solving later on.
How This Game Supports Learning
This game allows students to practice the 6 times table in a supportive environment.
Through repeated play, students can:
- Recognize number relationships
- Improve recall speed
- Build persistence
Practice Tips
- Connect 6 × facts to 2 × and 3 × facts
- Practice a few questions daily
- Encourage patience and progress
A strong understanding of the 6 times table also supports learning the
9 times table.
Students can also apply their knowledge to the
12 times table
or revisit the
4 times table
to strengthen their overall multiplication skills.
