Try the new section on the TTRS - Jamming

https://play.ttrockstars.com/auth/school/student/52575/password 

Sometimes you make the best music when you’re messing about on the instruments and you can let time run away with you. Jamming is like that too.

It’s all about your choice – which tables do you want to practise? Do you want multiplication? Division? Both?

The only thing you can’t choose is that there’s no timer! So kick back and chillax with this easy-going game mode.
