What Year 5 times tables covers
Year 5 introduces no new times tables — the grid was finished in Year 4. What changes is what the facts are for: factors, multiples, primes, square and cube numbers, short division, and equivalent fractions all assume instant recall, so a hesitation over 7 × 8 now costs a child the thread of a harder question. These sheets therefore drill the corner of the grid that is actually slow — every fact lies between 6 × 6 and 12 × 12 — and vary the order of each one, so it is recall rather than pattern-matching down a column. Every sheet is A4, print-ready, and comes with an answer key.
Answers included — a separate marking page with every sheet.
Questions parents ask
Are there new times tables in Year 5?
No. The national curriculum finishes the tables in Year 4, at 12 × 12. Year 5 does not add any — instead it starts spending them. Factors, multiples, prime numbers, square and cube numbers, short division, and equivalent fractions all assume the facts are already there. A child who is still working out 7 × 8 is doing two jobs at once, which is why Year 5 practice is about speed rather than coverage.
Why does this sheet skip the easy facts?
Because they are not where the time goes. By Year 5 the small facts are usually automatic, and a sheet full of 3 × 2 tells you nothing. This one draws both numbers from 6 to 12, so every question lands between 6 × 6 and 12 × 12 — the corner of the grid that holds 6 × 7, 7 × 8, 8 × 9 and 12 × 12, which are the facts children hesitate over. If you would rather cover the full range, add the smaller tables with the controls above, or use the general times tables tool.
Are the answers included?
Yes. Keep 'Answers' ticked and a separate answer-key page is made with every sheet, so marking takes seconds. Every answer is computed exactly and checked.
