Fact Family Icosahedron (2, 5, 10 Multiplication and Division Facts)
A hands-on game to play when learning about multiplication and division fact families.
Print the icosahedron net and blank answer sheet for each student. Students cut out the net, fold along the lines and glue the tabs to form their own icosahedron.
Students roll the icosahedron to land on one fact family. Students then complete the two multiplication and two division number sentences underneath the corresponding number on the blank answer page.
An answer sheet is provided for this resource.
A black and white version of this resource is included.

Hi Molly,
We don’t have instructions or a video on making these. The principle is the same as for other 3D objects; cut out the net, fold along the lines and glue the tabs to form the icosahedron. We have a blog devoted to these resources if you would like to take a read:
Fact Family Fun!
