Looking for fun Christmas and Winter Maths operations games? Your students will love these low-prep activities for EYSF. They will practice adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing numbers and increase their speed, confidence and accuracy in working out or recalling number operations. These Roll, Add, Calculate and Find activities will help to consolidate number fact fluency, which is an essential mathematical skill. These games are a great way of working on quick mental recall of times tables facts as students have to find a specific answer rather than go through the times tables by rote. The games are for students to play in pairs. Use them as part of an addition/ subtraction/ multiplication or division lesson to practice these skills or a stand-alone activity for students who need extra practice with this and prefer to play games rather than do lots of maths sheets. Checking that their friends have got the correct answer means that they have instant feedback if they have the answer right and if they disagree, they can work it out together. This will encourage discussion about maths operations. They can use the 2-12 times tables square provided to check instantly or rely on remembering their times tables. Playing games such as these will give a competitive element for students to be super engaged and try harder. We may know these number facts and patterns instinctively but students will gain a lot by having these mathematical concepts highlighted. These are great conversations to have over a fun game so that maths thinking becomes fluid and students have several number patterns and strategies to fall back on that will help them with mental maths and when they are multiplying numbers in the future. Here is what you will get: 5 addition and subtraction games to 10, 20 and 100 - there are 2 challenges for 20 and 100 to bridge 10 more often 5 multiplication and division games for 2 to 12 times tables a colour die/ dice a colour spinner Cute winter clipart for games ideal for Christmas and winter Instructions for the games *Teaching ideas for lessons Patterns for the different times tables to look out for Suggestions for investigations to help see number patterns and remember times tables better - this leads to better number fluency Patterns for the backs of the games 2 - 12 times tables squares to check answers quickly for the multiplication and division games Counters to print out, cut up and use in different colours to put onto the spaces they have won Prep is easy – Print, cut up and play. The dice will need to be folded and glued, if this takes too much time please use the spinners instead. If you like this resource, I would appreciate a review. Thank you.
