If the score is the same as a number on either player’s grid, you can cross out that number • The winner is the first to cross out all their numbers
Activity 2: Multiplication lotto • Play in pairs • Place the multiplication fact cards in a pile face down • Take it in turns to choose a card and calculate the missing number • Place the card on the lotto board which gives the missing number • Continue until the board is full. • Adapt the game • Time yourselves to see how quickly you can sort all the cards • Make your own grid and cards for another pair to play
