KS2 Maths Intervention Games & Activities: MULTIPLICATION & DIVISION

13 targeted activities which are designed to 'close the gap' in this key area of understanding. The activities are suitable for children in KS2 who may have gaps in their knowledge and understanding and would benefit from some intensive (but fun!) intervention work.

The activities are designed to be carried out in a 1:1 situation, although very small groups would also be appropriate. They use minimal resources and take approximately 10 - 20 minutes to complete.

Aims are as follows:
Aim: understand that multiplication is repeated addition.
Aim: to solve multiplication calculations up to 10 x 10
Aim: To further reinforce multiplication up to 10 x 10
Aim: For the child to recognise factors of numbers
Aim: To practise quick mental multiplication.
Aim: to recognise the factors of a number
Aim: To quickly recognise the answers to multiplication calculations
Aim: to introduce the concept of division as repeated subtraction.
Aim: to reinforce division facts
Aim: to show that division is the inverse of multiplication and vice versa.
Aim: to match up division calculations with the correct answer
Aim: to explore different division calculations which give the same answer.
Aim: to apply division/multiplication knowledge in a real life context and understand remainders.
