Some of my lower level students were aware of different divisibility 'tricks' and wanted to know if there were any more .
I showed them the following video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJW0HQTLkRE (not mine!) and we worked through some examples using the rules before making a learning aid with examples of proof.
The files included here are of the plenary board game. Students would take turns to roll a di (however many sides you like but I used a 6 sided di), if their roll was a 5 for example, and their counter was on a multiple of 5, then they could move 5 spaces forward. I encouraged students to verbalise rules or calculations used.
Rules of the game are printed on the board for ease.
I have uploaded a copy in Publisher which is fully editable, however the PDF is also there if you do not have access to MS Publisher.
Hope it is helpful.

A nice starter/plenary task for factors. Thanks for sharing on TES!
