How To Use Tic Tac Toe
Multiplication Games Preparing the Games
The printable game boards can be printed on cardstock or printed on paper and laminated.
Print the Symbol Cards on cardstock also and cut into cards. These are used to play the
games. These can be laminated if desired.
Alternatively, colored counters can be used with each player using a different color.
Playing the Games
The Multiplication Game Boards contain multiplication facts that must be answered before
a Symbol Card can be put down. The aim of the game is to create a line of 3 symbols but
a card can only be placed on a square after a correct answer is given to the multiplication
on the square.
On the 4x4 Game Boards the aim of the game is create a line of 4 symbols.
How to Ensure Students are Giving a Correct Answer
When 2 students are playing a game, you will want to ensure that they are giving correct
answers to the multiplications. This can be done is several different ways.
Allow the other student to use a calculator to check their opponents answer.
Allow the other student to use the Answer Key provided on page 9 to check their
opponents answer.
A third student can be involved in the game and check the answers given by the
players using a calculator or the Answer Key provided on page 9. If a third student
is used in this way, the winner of the game can then play the next game with the
third student. Play can continue in this way with several rounds being played and
the winner always playing against the third person. If a game is tied with no winner
being assigned, the third person will wait until a game ends with a winner creating a
line of 3. This person will then play the game with the winner.

Suggested Uses for the Tic Tac Toe Game Boards
Math Centers These games are ideal for a math center activity.
Daily Practice The Tic Tac Toe games are a quick and simple way to practice
and review facts. You may like to devote 10 minutes of each day to playing the games. Students can be paired with those of a similar ability and each pair can be given one game board to play several times over during a 10 minute time frame. 10 minutes devoted to this each day will quickly bring an improvement in recall of facts.
Display on Smart Board The game boards can be projected onto your smart
board and the class can be broken into 2 teams to play. One person from each team represents their team for one turn. On a turn they have to answer a fact correctly then mark the square with a O or X.
Homework These game boards are ideal for homework. They are a fun alternative
to regular homework and parents can be involved in playing the game with their children. This is really popular with the kids and the parents. A different game board can be sent home each night or children can take home a game board and then swap it for another when they feel that they have mastered the facts on the board.
Fast Finisher These games are a perfect activity for those children who finish
their work early. They can be kept in a box of games or on a shelf where the students can access them when they finish their work.
Students as Teachers A really worthwhile activity is to have children learn
the game and then teach others how to play it. Teaching others how to play is a great communication activity.
Buddy Class Activity The games are ideal for a buddy class activity. Have
the younger students 'teach' their older buddies how to play the game.
Class Tournament Use the games to hold a class tournament. Each child can
compete in the first round with the winner of each round going into the next round. Each pair plays several games and the first player to win 3 games is nominated the winner who then goes through to the next round.
