Random table questions every time — not the same page in order, so it tests recall instead of memory of the sheet.
Most children can chant the 7 times table top to bottom and still freeze on 7 × 6. Reciting in order builds a sequence, not recall. Random questions are what build actual fluency.
Learn 2 and 5 together, then 3 and 4, then 6 and 7. Doing all twelve at once means none of them stick.
Once a child knows that 6 × 7 and 7 × 6 are the same, the number of facts left to learn roughly halves. Point this out explicitly — most children don't notice.
Twelve questions in under two minutes is a good Class 3 target. Use a timer as a game, never as pressure. Write the time on the sheet so progress is visible week to week.
Five minutes every day beats half an hour on Sunday. Tables are pure recall, and recall responds to frequency, not length.
