# Homeschool multiplication practice beside the lesson plan

> Park five scheduled minutes a day next to the book you already like. The planner still owns the rest of the week.

You already have a curriculum and a planner, and often a co-op day. Fact fluency should take five minutes inside that week.

## Park it next to the planner

Homeschool weeks already have a rhythm. Core subjects some days, co-op or a field trip on others. Fact practice can use that rhythm. Five minutes on ordinary mornings is enough.

The next session is the facts that are due that morning. A busy day can skip. Wednesday is still a short sitting.

## More than one child

Each child needs their own recall path. A seven-year-old and a ten-year-old should not share a deck.

If each child has a tablet, they open TimesOwl there and keep using it. On a shared computer, give each child their own browser profile so their facts stay separate. You do not need a family plan or an email to start.

## What TimesOwl does about it

Beside the lesson plan, TimesOwl runs spaced reviews for the multiplication facts in about five minutes. The planner still owns the rest of the week.
