Pineapple Multiplication by Four Game
To use this printable multiplication roll and cover game, you’ll need the following: (This post contains affiliate links. For details, see our Disclosure Policy.)
- Printer (with ink)
- Printer Paper
- Six-sided dice or ten-sided dice
- Math counters or buttons
- Astrobright paper (optional)
This product includes two versions of the multiplication roll and cover game:
- One for use with a six-sided die
- And one for use with a ten-sided die
The rules are simple.
Students roll a die and then find the corresponding multiple of four on the game board.
Then they just cover that number with a math counter and keep going!
You can also use buttons, counting bears, pom-poms, or coins in place of counters.
Students can play the game alone or with a partner. If they’re playing alone, challenge them to see how quickly they can roll and cover all the multiples.
If they’re playing with a partner, the first one to cover the last multiple wins!
A line art version of both game boards is also included.
Personally, I love to add a pop of color by printing them on AstroBright paper – as above. It definitely makes the activity a bit more cheerful.
