MATHS - TWO WAY TABLES + ADDITION, SUBTRACTION, multiplication and logical thinking

This set of resources can be given as either 4 separate worksheets or cut into strips as 13 individual questions perhaps as a starter activity.

JPEG files included in case you want to use the in your own PowerPoint or Notebook files etc

The GOOD STARTING point is knowing that each dice has a total of 21 spots and calculate the

GRAND TOTAL (bottom right) = number of dice in the box x 21 OR

While the multiplication may be useful it can also be done entirely with addition and subtraction.
The dice boxes have 4, 6, 12, 15 or 35 dice in them.
It could also be a calculator activity.

It is a good discussion point on where to start when filling in the grid.
A lot of pupils will automatically start count the spots on the different coloured dice. However I found that ‘worked backwards’ were a lot more successful.

Checking that the column and row totals all ‘work’ is an essential part of this task.

I would appreciate any comments or feedback you could give via reviews.

I am currently in the process of uploading several DICE related resources which are available now or will be available in the near future.
