Lemonade Larry!

The website I've found today is called Lemonade Larry!

This game is similar to the traditional Lemonade Stand except not as in depth. Students are pretending to be Larry who sells lemonade. People then come by and ask for any number of cups and the price also changes so the students have to multiply them together to get the total. It's quite fun and cute to play, however the game could've been more complicated.

This website can be connected to Grade 5 Mathematics: Numbers & Operations Strand - Whole Number Multiplication.

I would use this site in a classroom by projecting it onto a bigger screen or using it on a SmartBoard as a whole class activity at the end of a multiplication unit. We could all play the game together by calling out the correct answer or students could come up one at a time to fill in the answer. Basically, although this site isn't the greatest it could be used as a number refresher.

This site can enhance student's learning because students would be drawn to play with it because it's got neat graphics and pictures. I think they can quickly practice their skills while not incorporating the site to be a main component of the lesson.
