Students sit in a circle, and a starting person is selected.
The starting person stands behind the student next to him or her.
The teacher holds up a flash card.
The student to say the answer first moves on to challenge the next student.
If a sitting student says the answer first, the students switch places.
This game is used to review a specific fact family and can be played in a small group or with the entire class.
Choose a number between 2 and 9. The first student says 1, the next student says 2, and so on.
Instead of saying a multiple of the selected number, the student says 'buzz.”
If a player forgets to say buzz or says it at the wrong time, he or she is out.
Continue until the group reaches the last multiple of the number times 9.
For example, if “2” is chosen. The first students says “1,” the next student says “buzz,” the next students says “3,” the next student says “buzz,” and so on until 18 (2 x 9) is reached.
Choose flash cards that correspond with facts the students are learning.
When the students line-up to enter or exit the classroom, hold up a flash card as each student passes through the door.
The answer to the flash card is the 'pass' into the classroom.
If a student misses the problem, he or she must step to the side and figure out the answer before he or she enters the classroom.
You may want to choose flash cards according to the individual student's ability. This activity may be a bit time-consuming the first couple of times you try it, but it will go faster as students memorize the facts.

Use domino doubles to demonstrate that multiplying by two is the same as adding doubles (e.g., 5 + 5 = 2 x 5, 6 + 6 = 2 x 6).
Ask your students create both addition and multiplication fact statements for the domino doubles.

Each player draws 7 cards. At each player's turn, the player looks for a matching problem and product.
If he or she a match, he or she grabs a spoon, and all of the other players attempt to grab the remaining spoons.
The player exposes the cards. If the player is correct, the player without a spoon writes an M (the first letter in MULTIPLY).
If the player is incorrect, the player writes an M. The cards are placed in a discard pile.
If, during a turn, the player does not have a match, he or she draws from the pile.
Each time a player spells MULTIPLY, the player is out of the game. The game continues until a single player remains.
Materials: Spoons (one spoon less than the total number of players, for example, five spoons for six players) Two sets of flash cards (PDF; first set with the answers and the second with the problems) Teacher Tip: Use a Slap-o-Matic (from the HandsDown board game) instead of spoons.

Put two equal stacks of flash cards on a desk in the front of the room.
Divide the students in two groups.
Ask the students to form two single file lines facing the desk. The first student in each line should be about 10 feet from the desk.
When play starts, the first person in line races to the desk, takes the first card in his or her pile, displays the card to the team, announces the answer, places the card in a discard pile, and then races to tag the next person in line.
If the student does not know the answer or gives the wrong answer, he or she puts the card on the bottom of the pile and selects the next card. This student keeps selecting cards until he or she knows the answer to one or until five cards have been selected.
The two teams play simultaneously, and the first team to correctly answer all the multiplication facts in its pile wins.

Create a field of play using the overhead projector or chalk/white board.
On the side of the flash card with the answer, write the results of a football play (e.g. 25 yard pass to wide out, 3 yard run by fullback, incomplete pass, lose 5 yards due to a fumble).
Create about 100 plays on flash cards. Most of the plays should be good results, but some plays are errors to add an element of surprise.
Divide your students into two teams. Each player takes a turn answering the fact.
If he or she answers correctly, the play on the card occurs. If a player misses a multiplication fact, the opposing team is given a chance to answer the fact correctly.
If the other team answers the fact correctly, the team recovers the fumble and start with a first down.
Start on the 20 yard line at the beginning of the game, the beginning of the second half, and after touchdowns. On the 4th down, the team may choose to try for a 1st down, punt (40 yards), or attempt a field goal (must be at least on the 40 yard line).
You can be creative with penalties (e.g., penalties can be assessed for not paying attention when it is not your turn, excessive talking, or helping someone else).

Write on the board, Ace = 1, J = 0, Q = 11, K = 12.
Break the students into teams of 2, and ask the students to shuffle their cards.
Instruct the students to deal the cards into two piles and stack a pile facedown in front of each player.
Both students turn over their top cards at the same time. As quickly as possible, they multiply the 2 cards together, and shout the answer.
The student who says the correct answer first places the cards in his or her winning pile. If a tie occurs, students should continue to turn their cards until someone wins the pile.
When all of the original stack has been played, the players count their winnings. The player with the highest total wins.

Keep kids engaged with fun and simple games that only require paper and pencil (or a couple colored pens). These games will challenge kids and keep them entertained for hours.
Dots and Boxes.
Remember the time it took to form an array of dots across the page? To play Dots, you need a square of dots on the page (start with 6×6 and challenge your kids to go up to 30×30 or more). Once the square is created, players (2 or more) take turns with a different color pen creating line segments between dots. Colibri 1 8 11. When a player forms a square with their line, they may put their initial in that square and play again. The game continues until all the lines between the dots have been drawn.
Tic Tac Toe.
The simple game of tic tac toe is a two player game of Xs and Os. Play begins with nine spaces on a paper created by crossing two perpendicular sets of two parallel lines. One player begins (take turns being the first player) by placing an X in one square. The next player draws an O in another square. The game continues until there are three Xs or Os in a row or all squares are filled–a draw game, also called cat’s.
Sim.
Draw six dots in a hexagon. Two players take turns drawing line segments between each dot in their own color pen. The object of the game is to avoid drawing a triangle in your color pen.
Pictionary.
Players secretly write down common phrases on pieces of paper and fold them up. The first chosen artist randomly picks a phrase then must draw and get the others to guess the phrase without talking or drawing letters or symbols. Once guessed correctly, a new artists is picked. Variation: instead of common phrases, write books, characters/celebrities or films.
Paper Telephone.
Three or more people each begin with a piece of paper. At the top of the page, they all draw a picture and pass the paper to the next player. With this new piece of paper, each person writes a caption sentence below the picture then folds the top of the paper over so only the sentence can be seen. This piece of paper is then passed to the next player who will draw a picture to go along with the sentence. Each player again folds the paper, now so only the picture can be seen and passes it along. The game continues until there is no more room and every player can open up the paper and be amused!
