Multiplication Table of 8 Worksheets

A useful mix for growing maths skills

This set gives children several ways to work with the 8 times table. Younger learners can count in groups of eight, match equations to answers and complete clear fact families. Older children can solve mixed questions, find missing factors, compare answers and use multiplication in short word problems. The activities move from supported practice to more independent recall, so you can choose a suitable starting point. Use the Multiplication Tables Worksheets page when your child needs practice with more than one table.

Simple ways to use the worksheets

At home, begin with a quick oral warm-up by counting aloud in 8s while clapping or tapping. Give your child one worksheet, then ask them to circle any fact that took extra thinking. In class, pairs can take turns reading an equation and checking the answer with a multiplication chart. You can use a worksheet for guided practice, quiet work or a short review at the end of a maths lesson. Keep completed sheets together so your child can see which facts still need practice.

Help with common table of 8 mistakes

Children often confuse 8 x 6 with 8 x 7, skip a multiple when counting, or write the factors in the wrong order. Ask your child to build the answer from a known fact, such as adding 8 to 8 x 5 to find 8 x 6. It can help to connect the table with doubles: 8 x 4 is double 4 x 4, and 8 x 8 is double 4 x 8. Remind them that 8 x 3 and 3 x 8 have the same product, even though the factors change places.
