Multiplication: Four in a Row
Materials: 2 paper clips, counters (different color for each player) Number of Players: 2
Player 1: Put paper clips on any two numbers below the square. Multiply
the two factors and cover one square on the board containing the product
with a counter. Say the multiplication fact.
Player 2: Move one paper clip to a different number. Multiply the two
factors and cover the resulting product on the board with a counter. Say
the multiplication fact.
Think carefully about the next product you want to cover before moving a
paper clip. You may only move one paper clip each turn. You may place
both paper clips on the same number.
Continue taking turns until one player has four counters in a horizontal,
vertical, or diagonal line.
