St. Patrick's Fortune Teller Games for Addition and Subtraction/Multiplication and Division -- Freebie

Here's a quick activity for small groups or math stations.

The game is for three players.

One player gives the other two players one card each. They hold the card to their forehead so that the other players can see it, but they cannot.

The dealer multiplies the two numbers on the cards together and calls out the product. Each player looks at the number on the other player's card and uses division to determine their own number. The first player to call out their number wins the round.

The game may also be played using related addition and subtraction facts.

I have included a set of black and white number cards in case you need to save your color ink.

Ouch!

Put a trip to The Dollar Tree on your To Do list this summer. You can usually get two packs of regular playing cards for $1.00. You can use them to address lots of the Common Core standards.

Here's a fun game called "Ouch" that uses playing cards for your math stations.

Run off the directions and standards, add a pack of cards, and you have a station you can use throughout the year.

I also like these Jumbo Sized cards that are just large enough to use if you want to play the game with your whole class divided into two teams, yet small enough that they won't take up all your board space.  Attach magnetic dots to the back and use them on your white board.

Spooky Ten Frames - Freebie!

All of my stations this week are reinforcing addition and subtraction skills to help my kiddos become fluent with their addition and subtraction facts.

To put a little twist on the practice, they choose one ten frame and write the four equations represented by the visual. Then, they have to give a written explanation of their answer.
