LI: To recall our time tables quickly
Today for maths we recalled our multiplication knowledge by playing a game called Super Fingers. This is a game to see how well and how fast we are able to answer multiplication questions.
The instructions of this game is that we need to write a word/phrase 'superfingers' is what is commonly used when playing super fingers, then write it on a white board or piece of paper. to play superfingers we would need two dice, when the dice are rolled we had to multiply them for example: you have rolled 2 and a 6 you would then need to figure out the answer in your head and the first person to call out the answer first wins a point. points are tallied by rubbing out a letter of the phrase or word you have chosen. The first person with and empty whiteboard/no more letters. wins the match.
The process we did it in was similar to a netball game, draw, quarter finals, semi finals, and lastly finals. To run this competition smoothly we created a bracket which showed who will play who. Our bracket were not even so later in the game we added two other players who were our wild cards witch were Vayan and Micah.
In pairs we challenged each other to see who was faster at answering the questions. The winner would go against the winner from another person. Whoever wins goes up against another winner, and it will keep going until there are two people left, which would be the finals.
The two people facing each other in the finals were Afatia and Chris. I enjoyed this game very much becasue I got to learn my time tables faster.
