Description
Circles and Stars is a timeless/classic multiplication game that was first introduced by the eminent mathematics educator, Marilyn Burns.
Circles and Stars is a game that gives students a visual interpretation of multiplication and repeated addition. The game also helps students see multiplication as the combining of equal-size groups that can be represented with a multiplication equation.
There are many iterations of this game and game board, but this user-friendly game worksheet that I’ve created and have used for years with students from as young as 1st grade up to 5th grade enables students to easily record their circles and stars.
There are multiple uses for this simple, yet exploratory game worksheet that begs for interpretation and individualization. Do it to the letter or make it your own. Regardless, students will have fun learning their multiplication facts in a light on the competitive game!
