Multiplication Timed Tests

Use this multiplication timed test set to help your students master their facts. Includes multiple pages for each fact family.
FREE multiplication timed test set for math fact mastery from The Curriculum Corner many pages in a single download
This is another free math resource for teachers from The Curriculum Corner.

Looking for a free collection of printable multiplication timed tests? You’ve come to the right spot!

When we first created our timed tests, we were often asked if we could combine them in one, large download. So, here they are!

We hope the single download link saves you time.

After combining the download, we were then asked to separate them! We just couldn’t win!

If you are looking for the old version you will find the individuals links at the very bottom of this post.

We have included three pages for each set of facts (0 – 12) so that students who are working on the same set can be next to each other during testing.

Sets are in three downloads below.

We have provided the tests in both horizontal and vertical layouts.

Do students need to memorize basic facts?

There are varying opinions on this subject. Our belief is yes!

We understand that dedicating time to memorize facts can be boring, repetitive work for students. For most, the process is far from engaging.

However, the time spent mastering math facts will pay off in the long run. If kids are unable to determine the product of two numbers, they won’t be able to solve larger multiplication problems in the future.

Of course, while we believe it is important, we also feel that simply using flash cards and timed tests will help all students learn.

We do not believe that the timed tests we are providing below should be used to teach. They are just a check point to see how students are progressing towards their goal.

Before students are working with paper and pencil, we suggest making sure you build a good foundation.

Do you students understand what multiplication means? Are they able to build an array to model the process?

Make sure you begin with hands on learning activities. Use real items to build arrays. Encourage students to continue this practice at home with cereal or crackers.

We then like to move onto games – not around the world where only one kid is really practicing while your math students who are not as quick are simply sitting and watching.

Many years ago we practiced in classrooms with games like around the world. Today we know that we need to instead use games where all kids get practice – not just the students already good at multiplication.

We are providing these printables because we know they are a tool used by teachers to track mastery – just make sure you mix in the modeling and games to keep your children engaged!

How long should students be given for each math fact?

Often teachers ask us how long we suggest giving students to complete a timed test.

We consistently see that it is recommended students are given three to four seconds per math fact. You can find research to support both.

Other Resources for Math Fact Mastery

Below the timed tests downloads, you will also find some of our favorite resources for practicing multiplication facts. We think it’s important for students to be given the opportunity to practice their basic facts while having fun.

For this reason, we provide a wide range of math fact games on our site – all free.


You can download the facts here:

  • Horizontal Set (25 problems per page/includes mixed sets for 0-5 & 6-10)
  • Vertical Set (25 problems per page/includes mixed sets for 0-5 & 6-10)
  • Multiplication Facts Review (100 problems per page – horizontal & vertical provided)
  • Math Fact Tracking Pages

**Note: We have provided sets of facts all the way through 12, but because many states only require mastery of multiplication facts through 100, the individual sets up through 10 ONLY incorporate facts to 100.   They do NOT contain 11s and 12s.

    The timed math test for 3rd graders, what time frame is acceptable for them to have completed 25 questions?

      Hi Keisha! Thanks for your question. We have found that the research supports 4 seconds per problem for students to achieve mastery of their facts. So, we would give our students 1 minute and 40 seconds, but we have colleagues who choose to give students a minute and a half. We would say that decision should probably be based on how you have things set up in your classroom. We don’t want students to stress out over the timed tests and much prefer keeping things positive and motivational when it comes to these tests. Hope this helps!
