A fun game played in pairs to reinforce fluency with times tables. Using a paperclip and pencil to make your spinner, children take it in turns to spin 2 numbers and multiply them e.g. 10 x 2 = 20 they then find the answer and claim that square by colouring it in their chosen colour or covering it with a counter. If the square is already covered miss a go! The winner is the player with the most squares at the end of the game. More resources @ https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/Whitley01
