Work out the multiplication code and enter it on the keypad. This is a chance to explain a strategy: use a known fact, draw equal groups or break a tricky calculation into friendlier pieces.
How to play
- Work out the whole answer before typing.
- Use the keypad to enter the code.
- If a try misses, check the calculation together.
Make one useful connection
After a turn, ask “How did you work that out?” Try an array, a known fact or real objects if an answer is uncertain. Moving, holding and remembering are extra skills; choose another interaction if those get in the way of the numbers.
