This is a game to make practicing finding the Least Common Multiple (LCM) fun! This is set up for a whole class activity. Students challenge another student for five rounds then switch to new partners. I play this as a tournament in my class until I get one winner. My students love to play this game to practice their skills. It is amazing how much quicker they get once they start playing this game. It is fun to play when first learning LCM and a good review when you start working with adding and subtracting unlike fractions.
This would be fun for 5 grade gifted/talented, 6th and 7th grade students.
