Engage Students in Multiplication Mastery with the Times Table Dial Cat and Dog Activity (Standard and Challenging Sets)
This interactive Cat and Dog-themed resource helps students develop a solid understanding of multiplication through a hands-on and engaging activity. Designed for differentiated learning, it includes both a standard set for building foundational times table skills and a challenging set for advancing their mastery. The playful cat and dog design keeps students motivated and eager to practise.
