We love Times Tables Rock Stars! Who doesn’t? Every school we go to features a TT Rock Stars display board with ‘Battle of the Bands’ Leader Boards. The best part is the excitement in learning that TT Rock Stars generates – with teachers, children, as well as parents and carers.
Why does this happen? It’s simple really – they make learning key facts fun. What can be better than gamifying essential numeracy skills for life?
Times Tables Rock Stars & Tagtiv8 – a Shared Ethos
Times Tables Rock Stars and Tagtiv8 were both formed by teachers with a passion for making a difference to the lives of children – and teachers! We are both committed to making learning fun, active and relevant. We both also feature in HundrED’s Top 100 Global education Innovations for 2019.
Working & Playing with TT Rock Stars & Tagtiv8
We work and play with some or all of the children in a school – focussing on their chosen times tables. How do we do this?
- Using Tagtiv8 number games to generate enthusiasm for Mathematics
- Blending Tagtiv8 ‘move & learn’ approaches with the TT Rock Stars platform
- Introducing the children & teachers to new games such as ‘Riff! Rap! Kerrang! and ‘Guitar Jumps!’
- Enabling teachers with skills to deliver their own ‘move & learn’ approaches for multiplication
Our ‘move & learn’ approaches engage even the most reluctant of learners and those children with a fear of Mathematics.
