This series started at the kitchen table. My daughter knew her times tables, but slowly. What helped was five minutes a day with a kitchen timer: a short timed test most days, I checked it, she went back over the ones she got wrong, and she got faster.
Every book in the series is built the same way, so a child can move from one skill to the next without learning a new routine.
