Baseball Multiplication
multiplication · factors and multiples · multiplying 2-digit or 1-digit numbers by 1-digit numbers and identifying prime numbers
To multiply 2-digit or 1-digit number by 1-digit number, to identify if a number is prime [4.NBT.B.5] [4.OA.B.4].
Baseball Multiplication is a Grade 4 game that combines multi-digit multiplication with prime-number thinking. Players use cards to create multiplication work on a shared baseball board, multiplying one- or two-digit numbers by a one-digit number and identifying prime numbers when they appear in play. That mix keeps students moving between computation and number properties instead of practicing only one skill.
Use it in a small group after students have learned the multiplication methods the game expects. It gives you opportunities to listen for place-value reasoning, multiplication accuracy, and how students decide whether a number is prime.
