If the student does not know the answer or gives the wrong answer, he or she puts the card on the bottom of the pile and selects the next card.

When play starts, the first person in line races to the desk, takes the first card in his or her pile, displays the card to the team, announces the answer, places the card in a discard pile, and then races to tag the next person in line.

The first student in each line should be about 10 feet from the desk.

Ask the students to form two single file lines facing the desk.

Put two equal stacks of flash cards on a desk in the front of the room.

Teacher Tip: Use a Slap-o-Matic (from the HandsDown board game) instead of spoons.

Two sets of flash cards (PDF first set with the answers and the second with the problems) Spoons (one spoon less than the total number of players, for example, five spoons for six players) The game continues until a single player remains. If, during a turn, the player does not have a match, he or she draws from the pile.Įach time a player spells MULTIPLY, the player is out of the game.If the player is incorrect, the player writes an M.If the player is correct, the player without a spoon writes an M (the first letter in MULTIPLY). If he or she a match, he or she grabs a spoon, and all of the other players attempt to grab the remaining spoons.At each player's turn, the player looks for a matching problem and product. When you have mastered a special level, you will have earned 5 stars, at a normal level you can only earn 3 stars. The game also has special levels, the various times table questions are jumbled and you will also have to answer more questions. If you jump over them, they will not bother you.Īt most levels you must answer questions about one times table. When you have answered five or ten questions in a row correctly, you will receive a boost! On the way you will also run into obstacles, such as oil spills and stacks of logs. That's the basic condition, but of course you also have to move faster than your opponent, otherwise you will never reach the next level. First of all you have to get all the maths problems right to make progress. It is not that simple to get to the next country.

Each level allows you to race through a country, you start out in Italy and the other countries are a surprise. In the times table rally game you are allowed to drive in various rallies and you will advance to the next level if you get good results. How does the times table rally game work?
