Description
Race around the track in this fast-paced game. Watch as your car zooms along the race track with every question answered correctly. With each correct response, players gain momentum—bringing them closer to victory. Who will end up on the winner’s podium?
In this version, students practise dividing by 4 while also exploring the inverse relationship between division and multiplication. They’ll strengthen their understanding of number facts and develop fluency through repeated practise—all while racing their way to the finish line.
Let’s Race – Divide by 4 is a perfect fit for fluency building, warm-ups, or maths rotations. Students can compete on the interactive whiteboard or scan the QR code to play independently and build confidence with division strategies.
Key Learning Outcomes:
- ✅ Recall and apply division facts for dividing by 4
- ✅ Understand the inverse relationship between division and multiplication
- ✅ Strengthen number fact fluency and strategy use
- ✅ Improve mental maths and quick recall of facts
- ✅ Engage in fast-paced gameplay to reinforce mathematical thinking
How to Play:
- Students roll the dice and move their car along the track.
- When they land on a space, they solve a division problem involving dividing by 4.
- A correct answer speeds up their car, pushing them further ahead in the race.
