[|ROLLIN" WITH THE FACTS]  :   This is a fun math activity that can be in the classroom or at home. It helps kids get good at their multiplication facts up to 12 x 12.

//Start with two dice and have the players shake and roll the dice. Add the number of dots mentally. One player gets to throw the dice and give answers until he misses and then the play moves to the next player. When this gets too easy, add another die. Then two more and so on. // **Subtract The Dots!** //Start with by throwing two of the dice. Now roll the third. Subtract mentally the second number from the first. Increase the difficulty by progressing from three dice to three and one, then three and two, then four and two, etc.// **Multiply Fly!** //You may need a handy multiplication chart for this one. Start with two dice and let the first player throw the dice and multiply the two numbers together until another player catches him in an error. Then the dice move to the next player. Progress by adding one dice to either throw at a time.// **Divide and Conquer!** //For this game the players will need paper pads and pencils. The leader rolls up to six dice at once. Players try to add up the dots and be the first to call out the total. Now everyone writes the number as their dividend. The leader then throws one die. The players try to divide the last into the dividend. The first to call out the correct answer wins and gets roll the dice for the next problem.// //The four Math Skill Games above were provided by Elece Hollis. She's an educational writer with www.suite101.com.//All four of these games use addition, of course, and soon the players will be adding with greater speed and not needing to count dots aloud.
