About this worksheet

Counting in threes (3, 6, 9, 12 …) first, then the facts out of order. The 3s are the first table with no doubling shortcut. The digits of every answer add up to 3, 6 or 9 (3 × 8 = 24 → 2 + 4 = 6). The facts that need the most repetition: 3 × 7, 3 × 8 and 3 × 9 — just past the counting range most children hold in their head.

Typical use: grade 3, one sheet a day for a week, then a mixed 0–12 sheet to check the 3s hold up among the other tables. Narrow the range to 1–10 for a shorter table, or switch to the horizontal layout for a fact-test format.

Standards

  • Common Core 3.OA.C.7 — fluently multiply within 100
  • Common Core 3.OA.B.5 — properties of operations (commutativity: 3 × a = a × 3)
