Loop Card Game - Multiply and divide using known facts Set 1
Maths Resource Description
The Loop Card Game titled "Multiply and divide using known facts Set 1" is a mathematical exercise designed for Year 5 students to practice and reinforce their multiplication and division skills. This educational game comprises a series of cards, each displaying a mathematical operation that leads to the next card in sequence. For example, one card may show the number 6300, and the following card will present an operation that results in that number, such as 1.2 x 2, which equals 2.4. The subsequent card might then start with 2.4 and present a new operation, like 50 x 5, which gives the answer 250, and so on.
The game includes a variety of calculations, with some featuring decimals, such as 0.5 x 4 resulting in 2, and others involving larger numbers, like 4000 ÷ 4 equalling 1000. Each card is carefully designed to connect with the next through a chain of multiplication or division problems, creating a loop that students can follow from start to finish. This engaging activity not only helps to solidify the students' understanding of multiplication and division facts but also encourages them to use known facts to solve problems quickly and efficiently. The Loop Card Game is a fun and interactive way for students to develop their numerical fluency and mental arithmetic skills.
