Multiplication Top-It

Need a GREAT and SIMPLE way to practice MULTIPLICATION at HOME?

Try the game Multiplication Top-It

SUPPLIES:  regular deck of playing cards (take out Queen, King, and Joker)

     *  Ace = 1  and  Jack = 10

DIRECTIONS:  

                      Shuffle the deck of cards (there should be '4' of each number).   Turn the cards FACE DOWN on the table/desk

                      EACH player takes two cards off the top of the desk and reads their two numbers aloud and SOLVES (multiplying the two numbers together).  The player with the higher product {answer} keeps the cards of BOTH players.  REPEAT until all cards are used.

                      IF there is a tie when the product is found, then turn over another set of cards.  The player with the greatest product in round two will get their two cards, plus the previous set of two numbers.  REPEAT this procedure until there is NO TIE. 

 We are working so hard to become accurate on our basic facts!!!  We'd LOVE your help too!
