    Factors and multiples might seem easy for us because of years of practice. But how do you introduce it to your primary grade kid? Challenging, right? But it need not be that way, for there are many great ways to help your kids learn and practice this concept with ease. Want to know how? Read on.

    Introduction

    In the elementary grade, factors and multiples are two of the most critical concepts that your kid would be learning together. To learn these, your kid would first need to understand multiplication and division. But introducing that to a fourth-grade kid who has just learnt times tables can be a bit tricky.

    For instance, they should be able to understand that 6 divided by 2 gives 0 as the remainder, so 2 is a factor of 6. 2 multiplied by 6 gives 12, so 12 is a multiple of 6 as well as 2. A comprehensive understanding of factors and multiples is required to grasp the concept of prime and composite numbers. 

    Further in this article, you can get acquainted with all the challenges involved in teaching the concept of factors and multiples and how you can overcome them for a successful learning experience.

    Barriers to Learning Factors and Multiples

    Your kid may not have a good hang of multiplication tables to understand this concept and may find it demanding to analyze the factors and multiples of a particular number.

    Some kids do not have a good memory to quickly analyze and come up with the factors and multiples of a given number without much effort.

    How Can You Make the Learning Process Easier?

    To introduce this concept, you can play games where you give them a certain number and ask them to find out the factors for it. For instance, ask them how much would they have to share if they have 4 apples, and they have to share it between two people? Or you can ask them how many balls they would have in total if they had 2 balls initially and you gave them 3 times more.

    Roll dice and get them to find multiples of the number they got. Alternatively, they can also answer if they are a factor of a particular number.

    Furthermore, you can also let them play online educational games like that on SplashLearn to help them understand and practice the concept of factors and multiples. The structured approach of such games that follow common core standards would help your kids practice it without feeling overwhelmed or burdened.

    Effective Ways to Teach Your Kids Through Online Games

    The main benefit of learning factors and multiples through online games is their streamlined and step-by-step approach to the concept. Through this, your kids would learn all the jargon and vocabulary associated with it in an engaging and fun-filled way.

    These interactive games make learning interesting and focused for every grade to ensure maximum retention.

    There are certain games that you could teach your kids to make the concept of factors and multiples easy and comprehensive. 

    In Conclusion
