Description

Division Dragsters is a bright, colourful, and engaging game designed to help students practise their division facts in a fun and interactive way. Perfect for reinforcing fluency, this resource targets division facts for 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, giving students plenty of opportunities to practise across a range of fact families.


The rules are simple and easy to follow: students roll a dice, select a question from the matching column, solve the division equation, and then cover the space once it has been answered correctly. The first to cover their board wins! This game blends chance with strategy and repetition, keeping learners motivated as they race their way to victory.


Division Dragsters is an ideal addition to maths rotations, partner activities, or small group challenges. With minimal prep and maximum impact, it encourages friendly competition, builds confidence with division, and provides teachers with an engaging way to revisit division facts. Laminate the boards for reuse and you will have a resource that can be played again and again throughout the year.
