Jammin' with Multiplication and Division PLUS Sale and $25.00 TPT Gift Card Giveaway!

Here's a fun way to develop fluency in multiplication. Put this game in a math station. Your kids won't even know they are building fluency as they try to beat the clock and collect as many cards as they can. Instead of the typical drill on basic multiplication facts, students have to find the unknowns in equations, such as 4 x ? = 36.
