Activity Instructions

Have one student throw a bean bag on the floor mat. Two students walk from the top and side of the mat following the appropriate column/row to the number where the bean bag landed. When they get to the box that contains the bean bag, each student recites the multiplication fact.

For example, if the beanbag lands on 42, student A will walk vertically down the 7 column 6 times, until they arrive at 42. Student B will walk horizontally from the 6 row 7 times until they arrive at 42. They will say 6 times 7 equals 42.
