Math facts practice
Short fact practice for parents and teachers: what fluency means, how to teach times tables, what 3rd grade expects, and how FastyFacts compares with other fact apps.
A kid can understand what 7×8 means and still freeze on it. This hub is about the second problem: getting the fact to come back fast, without turning the kitchen table into a worksheet stack.
FastyFacts is the app in the middle. Times tables from 2×2 through 12×12, with division, addition, and subtraction as review. Rounds of 5, 10, or 20 questions. A missed fact comes back later. Fact rings show an adult which table is still weak. It is free on iOS and works offline.
Five guides sit around it, each with one job. What fact fluency is once the concept is taught. How to teach times tables in a US classroom or at home. What 3rd grade actually expects. A five-minute warm-up. And a plain comparison of fact apps, FastyFacts included. If you need letters instead of numbers, Fasty Letters is the sibling for ages 4 to 7, and it is not here.

Frequently asked questions
Who is this hub for?
Parents and teachers of kids who are learning multiplication facts, or who learned them once and still stall on a few. Not a curriculum guide for the whole year of math.
What product sits here?
FastyFacts, a free iOS math facts game from Swizzle Works. Short adaptive rounds, a monster coach, and progress by times table for the adult.
Does FastyFacts teach the concept of multiplication?
No. It practices recall. Arrays, equal groups, and strategies like doubling belong to the lesson or the parent. The guides here say where that line sits.
Where are the letter games?
Fasty Letters is the alphabet app for ages 4 to 7. Its guides live on the early literacy hub, linked above. This hub is only about number facts.
