4 Times Tables - Connect It

Connect It is an engaging and educational game designed to help players practice and reinforce their knowledge of the 4 times tables. To set up the game, you will need a set of counters, a 'Multiples of 4' board which displays a range of multiples of 4, and a deck of cards numbered from 0 to 12. The aim of the game is to familiarise players with the multiples of 4 in a fun and interactive way.

The gameplay is straightforward and involves players taking turns to draw a card from the shuffled deck and multiplying the number on the card by four. They then place a counter over the corresponding multiple on the board. For example, if a player picks up a card with the number 5, they would cover the number 20 on the board, since 5 times 4 equals 20. If a player draws a number whose multiples are already covered on the board, they simply set the card aside and draw another. The objective is to be the first to cover four numbers in a straight line, either horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. For a longer game, players can aim to cover five numbers in a line to win. This game, published by Buzzard Publishing and taken from Get The Buzz Games For Tables, offers a dynamic way to build multiplication skills.
