How to Use the Interactive Multiplication Chart
A multiplication chart is the quickest way to see how the times tables fit together. Point to any square and its row and column light up to that square, with the fact shown in big numbers: 7 × 8 = 56. Highlight square numbers, multiples of a number, even products or turn-around facts to talk about patterns, or hide the products and let students reveal them one by one. Charts come in 10 × 10, 12 × 12 and 15 × 15, and you can print filled or blank versions. It runs free in your browser, with no sign-up.
Explore the times tables in 3 steps
Pick a chart size. Choose 10 × 10, 12 × 12 or 15 × 15. Hover over or tap any square to see its fact, or tap a number in the top row or left column to light up all of its multiples.
Highlight a pattern. Turn on Square numbers, Multiples of N, Even products, Commutative pair or Facts of N, and set N with the − and + buttons. The chart shows how many squares match, which makes a good discussion starter.
Practice, project or print. Switch on Hide products and tap squares to reveal them, or press Quiz me for a random fact to solve. Open Classroom Presentation Mode for the big screen, or download a filled or blank chart as a PDF.
Ways to use it in your classroom
Pattern hunt number talk
Turn on Square numbers and ask why they run down the diagonal. Then switch to Even products and ask when a product is odd: only odd × odd. Change to Multiples of N with N set to 5 and students spot products ending in 0 or 5. The match count gives each talk a concrete number to check.
Half the facts with turn-arounds
Choose Commutative pair and tap 3 × 8: the chart also lights 8 × 3, which has the same product, 24. Ask third graders how many facts they really need to learn once they know turn-around facts. On a 12 × 12 chart, the 144 squares hold just 78 different facts.
Hide and reveal warm-up
Switch on Hide products and project the chart. Call on students to name a fact before they tap its square to check, while the counter tracks how many squares the class has revealed. Start in the 2s, 5s and 10s rows, then move to the facts your class finds tricky.
Blank chart as a check-in
Download the blank chart PDF at the start of a unit and have students fill in what they already know in pencil. Repeat with a fresh copy a few weeks later and compare the two. The Name and Date lines keep the copies in order in a math folder.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can students use it to practice, not just look up answers?
Yes. Hide products blanks every square, and students tap a square to check their answer while a counter tracks how many they have revealed. Quiz me outlines a random fact (and hides its turn-around partner too) until you press Reveal.
What is on the printable PDF?
The filled chart prints every product, with bold header numbers and shaded alternate rows. The blank chart keeps the header numbers, adds Name and Date lines, and leaves the squares empty for students to fill in. Both use the chart size you picked, on US Letter or A4 paper.
Does it work on Chromebooks, iPads and phones?
Yes. The chart shrinks to fit the screen, so a 12 × 12 chart fits on a phone, and the 15 × 15 chart scrolls sideways on small screens. You can also move around the chart with the arrow keys and press Enter to select a square.
How can a multiplication chart help with division?
Division is the inverse of multiplication, so the chart works both ways. For 56 ÷ 7, find row 7 and slide across until you reach 56, then look up to the top of that column: it’s 8, so 56 ÷ 7 = 8. Tap the square to see the fact 7 × 8 = 56. Practicing this way connects each division fact to a times-table fact students already know.
How do I help students learn one times table at a time?
Turn on Facts of N and set N to the number you are working on, such as 7. Row 7 and column 7 light up, showing every fact with 7 as a factor. Talk through the facts students already know from other tables, like 7 × 2 and 7 × 5, then focus practice on the few that remain. Hide products turns the chart into self-checking practice.
Which chart size should I use: 10 × 10, 12 × 12 or 15 × 15?
Use 10 × 10 when students are first learning facts to 10, and 12 × 12 for the full set of times tables many classes practice. The 15 × 15 chart is useful for pattern work, such as square numbers up to 225 or extending the multiples of a number. The printable PDF uses the size you have picked.
