Learning Can Be Fun - Magic Triangles Multiplication & Division

The Multiplication Magic cards can be used effectively by the teacher as a teaching aid or by individual students to learn and revise the multiplication and corresponding division facts from 1-times to 12-times.

The teacher can ask the class to read the multiplication sentence as a card is held up (Eg: 6 x 4 = 24, 4 x 6 = 24) or alternatively cover the numeral at the top of the card (the product) to see how quickly the children can provide the answer.

The simple design allows individual students to work independently as they learn and memorise the multiplication and division facts, and complete the revision exercise on the back of each card, using a whiteboard marker on the write-on /wipe-off surface.

The cards are colour coded to indicate the level of difficulty.

Contains 76 sturdy, laminated cards measuring 12.3cm x 12.3cm in a durable storage container.

Multiplication
Multiply the two bottom numbers. The answer (product) is at the
top. 1 x 2 = 2 2 x 1 = 2.

Division
Start with the number at the top. Divide it by a number at the
bottom. Cover the selected number. The answer will be the
remaining bottom number.

Ages: 6+

Q: What are "Magic Triangles" and how do they work for multiplication?

A: Magic Triangles are a visual math tool designed to show the relationship between three numbers in a "fact family." For multiplication, children multiply the two numbers at the bottom corners; the answer (the product) is always located at the top peak. By covering one corner with a hand, the child can practice finding the missing factor or product.

Q: How does this set help with learning division?

A: The set demonstrates that division is the inverse of multiplication. To practice division, you start with the number at the top and divide it by one of the numbers at the bottom. The remaining bottom number is the answer. This helps children understand how numbers are grouped and shared.

Q: What is included in the Learning Can Be Fun Magic Triangles set?

A: The set contains 77 sturdy, laminated double-sided cards covering multiplication and division facts for the 1 to 12 times tables. It also features a write-on/wipe-off surface on the back for additional revision exercises.

Q: Are these cards self-checking?

A: Yes. The simple design allows children to work independently. They can cover an answer, solve the problem, and then lift their hand to reveal the correct number immediately, providing instant feedback and building confidence without adult supervision.

Q: What age group is this math resource designed for?

A: This set is ideal for children aged 6 years and up (Primary school years 2–6). It is specifically designed to align with STEM learning goals by enhancing fast-paced mental math, problem-solving, and pattern recognition.

Q: Can these be used in a classroom setting?

A: Absolutely. They are excellent for maths centers, group rotations, or one-on-one tutoring. Because they are color-coded by difficulty and wipe-clean, they are durable enough for repeated use by multiple students.
