I am always looking for fun ways to practice math facts with my students. After a GREAT job on the math TAKS test, I thought the kids deserved a little bit of fun in our math lesson! The object of BUG is to answer to multiplication problem correctly and roll the die to draw a body part on our team's bug. There is a "key" on the board that shows which number on the die corresponds to which body part for the bug. When your team's bug is completed, you win! But beware, if you answer incorrectly, you don't get the chance to add to your bug. Turn on your brain!!
We split our class into 2 teams. One student got to be the facilitator for each round and was in charge of flipping the fact cards and verfiying that the answers were correct. 
Team 2 was the winner! (Actually, I think everyone was a winner because we: 1. Worked on our math facts and showed improvement in fluency and accuracy 2. Encouraged each other and worked as a team 3. Had a blast! )
Let's play again!
