SETTING UP THE CARDS
1.Duplicate the background slide, and print your number cards back to back with the striped background. This is the set of factor cards.
2.Create the Target cards, by printing the targets back to back as you did with the number cards.
3.Laminate the cards for durability- You may choose to print off and laminate the playing mats.

HOW TO PLAY
For 2-4 players
1.Shuffle the 7 factor cards (numbers 1-12), and deal 7 cards to each player. Place the rest of the deck face down on the table.
2.Shuffle the target cards and turn over the top card revealing the target number.
3.Let’s say the target card is 36, the player to the left of the dealer will look at the cards in their hand and see if any of them are a factor of 36.
4.If that player has a factor they will place it next to the target card, for instance, if it the player has a 4, they will say 9x4=36, and then the play will go to the next person to the left and continue until a player does not have a card that is a factor of the target number. That person then has to pick up ALL of the cards that have already been played.
5.The next player will turn over the next target card from the top of the pile, and play will continue.
6.The winner is the person who manages to get rid of all of the cards in their hand first.
7.Each player MUST say the multiplication face when playing their card.
