⭐In this 2 week summer camp, students will practice their multiplication facts to build fact fluency while playing different board games inspired by Connect 4, Memory, Multiplication Bump, and your average roll & get to the finish line game!⭐

👉🏼This summer camp is perfect for the learner who is looking to gain confidence in their basic multiplication facts. We’ll make learning about & practicing multiplication engaging, upbeat and encouraging!

G A M E   D E S C R I P T I O N S :

1️⃣ RACE TO THE FINISH: Students will take turns with a dice roll and moving around the game board, with all students solving the equation that gets landed on. Whoever reaches the finish first, wins! Try to avoid the "Go Back" spaces and get an extra boost with the "Move Ahead" spaces! 

2️⃣ CONNECT 4 MULTIPLICATION: As a class, we will work together to get 4 connected answers in a row! We'll roll the dice to determine what number we'll be multiplying by and then find that answer on our board, marking them off working towards 4 in a row!

3️⃣ MULTIPLICATION MEMORY: Just like your average memory game! Students will take turns deciding which tiles to flip over. If we have a match for an equation and it's answer, we'll leave them uncovered - if it's not a match, back to the drawing board!

4️⃣ MULTIPLICATION BUMP: Students take turns with a dice roll to determine what number we'll be multiplying by. Their name will be placed on the answer to the equation. As students continue to take turns, they'll be able to "bump" other students off the game board, but they also have the chance to lock in their spot by getting the same answer a second time!
