- Shuffle the deck and hand one card to each student. If there are any remaining cards, give some students two cards.
- Have the students stand up and look at their card(s).
- The student with the card, “I have the first card” will start the game. They will read their card out loud and sit down.
- The student who has the card with the correct answer then reads their card out loud and sits down.
- Play continues until all cards have been read.
Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding
A team of passionate teachers created this skip counting resource to support your math lessons.
If you have a mixture of above and below-level learners, check out these suggestions for keeping students on track with the concepts:
🆘 Support Struggling Students
Help students who need help understanding the concepts by using the fishbowl method before playing. Gather a small group of students together in the centre of the room. Have the group model how to play the game before the whole class joins in.
➕ Challenge Fast Finishers
For students who need a bit of a challenge, encourage them to create an array, repeated addition, or word-based problem which reflects the fact on their card.
