Multiplication 1 to 10 Word Problems - Athletics Competition Activity

This interactive activity uses the context of a local athletics carnival to help learners practise multiplication facts from 1 to 10. Each page presents a different athletics event—such as relay races, high jump, discus, hurdles, and more—where students are asked to solve practical word problems by writing and solving multiplication equations.

Learners encounter scenarios like calculating the total number of jumps, throws, or pieces of equipment needed for various events. Each problem is supported by relevant images and an interactive equation question, making the maths both visual and engaging. The activity encourages students to connect their multiplication skills to everyday sports situations, promoting both problem-solving and real-world application.

This resource is well-suited for classroom use, small group work, or home learning, providing opportunities for independent practice or formative assessment. Educators can use it to reinforce multiplication concepts and to demonstrate how maths is used in familiar, practical contexts.
