Today's game was selected to be transformed into a Maths300 lesson, which was pretty exciting! This video an updated version of one we posted a few months back, with some improvements to the rules as a result of writing the lesson up for Maths300. Enjoy! youtube.com/watch?v=FDTmpY…

We are sharing a new maths game each day to support families and teachers during phase 2 of remote learning. Today's game is called The Paddock Game and it's great for developing an understanding of multiplication. Enjoy! youtube.com/watch?v=Fh61pC…

Day 35's game is Place Value Knockout. Also, just a heads up that because Victorian schools will be re-opening next Tuesday, this will be our final week of posting daily games. This means there are 4 to go. Enjoy! youtube.com/watch?v=vfUwi6…


I'm sharing a home-friendly maths game every day. Today is Multiplication Ludo, created by @surfmaths! Lots of thinking, both about multiplying numbers and the best strategy to be successful in the game. I hope you enjoy it! youtu.be/wmw81dmC3kA via @YouTube

Sharing a new game every day to be played at home- Day 12 is Rowco 2.0. This was already a fantastic game but we have added a new element that increases the level of strategic thinking- Kings who steal cards #iteachmath #remotelearning youtu.be/bm80EDtenmU via @YouTube


Day 8- The Product Game. Another of my top 5 games of all-time. There is no luck involved at all...the game is 100% strategic. It's also a fun way for students to practise multiplication. Hope you enjoy #gameaday #mathsathome #iteachmaths youtu.be/29jML8gdBxU via @YouTube

Sharing a game per day. Day 9- Ten Frame Filler. This version is the brainchild of Nash & its worth sharing bc it highlights importance of letting kids play with the rules to see how slight variations can change the game #iteachmaths youtu.be/qoCA5X5GePs via @YouTube
