Finding the Equation – X10 Times Table

Use this bright, colourful and engaging board game to develop problem solving skills in your students. This Finding the Equation board game is great for reinforcing knowledge of the 10 times table. Students spin the spinner and answer the equation they land on, the first player to cover 10 correct answers is the winner. Laminate all 12 gameboards for a quick and effective maths rotations activity or use the black and white versions that students can decorate themselves.

Suitable as a fast finisher activity or for math rotations.
