This fun and engaging game is a great way for students to practice recognising the language used in multiplication and division word problems.
Students work their way around the board, reading the interesting number stories to then write matching number sentences for, before solving.
This resource is part of the Multiplication and Division Word Problems Unit Plan- Year 3.
