Rapid multiplication recall
We do love this activity. You are given 54. What numbers when multiplied together would make it, you search for them and click on them in the grid. We got number 54 then 3. So a real mixed bag here.
Unfortunately their server seems to generate errors sometimes (it is a Microsoft one after all, poor thing) so just check this one out before the lesson starts.
