Eight Times Table Snap - PowerPoint
Maths Resource Description
The "Eight Times Table Snap" is an engaging and interactive PowerPoint resource aimed at Year 3 students to help them master multiplication and division concepts, specifically focusing on the eight times table. In this game, students are encouraged to match cards displaying multiplication expressions with their correct products. They must quickly shout "SNAP" if the cards match or "NO SNAP" if they do not, with only six seconds to respond before the time runs out. This fast-paced activity not only reinforces their understanding of the eight times table but also promotes quick thinking and sharpens their reflexes.
The game setup is simple: print and cut out the cards provided in the slides, deal them equally among players, and take turns placing cards in the centre. When a match is spotted, the quickest to call "snap" wins the cards in the centre. The player with the most cards at the end is declared the winner. Additionally, the resource includes a worksheet where students can test their knowledge by identifying true or false statements related to the eight times table, further solidifying their grasp of the concept through repetition and verification.
