Check the multiplication on each parcel and decide whether it belongs in the correct or incorrect direction. Saying why a parcel is right or wrong makes this more useful than simply moving it quickly.
How to play
- Read the fact and the proposed answer.
- Decide whether the statement is correct.
- Send it in the matching direction.
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.
