Multiplication towers

I got this idea from another teacher on her blog and LOVED it.  The students get the plastic cups out of the designated can and say the answer to the equation-their partner checks them and then it's their partners turn.  They stack the cups into a tower. I also made some division ones for students that are ready for that.

                                                           To make the game: Get a package of the little, white, plastic Solo cups 150 count.  I just used a permanent marker and made equations like shown in my pictures above.  You can use any container to store them in but I am collecting and using regular cans-the ones for soup, veggies, etc.  The woman that I got the idea from uses pringles cans with a lid. You could use the small or large ones.  I covered mine with cheap scrapbook paper from the dollar isle at Target.  Then I labeld the outside of the cup with the correct times table.
