Loop Card Game - Multiply 3 numbers
Maths Resource Description
The Loop Card Game titled "Multiply 3 numbers" is an engaging educational resource from KS2Gems, tailored for Year 6 students to practice their multiplication skills. The game consists of a series of cards, each displaying a multiplication problem involving three numbers. For example, one card may show the calculation "3 x 9 x 1", with the answer "27" presented on a separate card. This answer then leads to another multiplication question, "3 x 4 x 3", which has the answer "36", and so on, creating a continuous loop of questions and answers.
Each set of loop cards is designed to challenge students with a variety of multiplication problems, ranging from simpler calculations like "1 x 1 x 1" with the answer "1", to more complex ones such as "9 x 4 x 6" resulting in "216". The game is intended to not only improve the speed and accuracy of students' multiplication but also to enhance their ability to work with larger numbers, as evidenced by problems like "10 x 10 x 10" equaling "1000". The loop format ensures that the game can be played continuously, making it an ideal activity for reinforcing multiplication tables and promoting mathematical fluency in a fun and interactive way.
