Equal Groups Bakery: Arrays Game for Grades 2‑3
Arrange trays in rows and columns to fill every order.
Customers line up at the bakery with orders like '4 rows of 3 cupcakes' or '24 muffins in 4 equal rows'. Set the rows and columns on your baking tray to match, then bake before the customer loses patience. Discover that rows times columns gives the total, and see the repeated addition behind each array. Three levels take you from small trays to big multiplication arrays.

What kids practise
Equal Groups Bakery gives students repeated, low-pressure practice with arrays, equal groups, repeated addition, multiplication, and rows and columns. It is written for grades 2-3, with levels that let younger and older players start at the right difficulty. Every question is generated fresh, so a replay is never the same, and a wrong answer shows the correct one so the round teaches as well as tests.
