How to play:

1. The cards last better if you laminate them. Post the large cards around the room on walls, doors, and cupboards where students can see many at once.

2. Have students pair up and get a lined piece of paper. Students can start at any number. Students write down the number of the card they start at. They read the bottom of the large card and look around the room for the answer on the top part of another card. When they find the answer, they put the number of the card on their lined paper below their starting place. Each card number is placed on a line below.

3. Students can come check with you at any point to see if their answers so far are correct. Some students need a lot of encouragement that they are on the right track. Students will end at the card they started at. I really like this game because they must get the answer correct in order to complete the game. It is a great review to prepare for a test.

*A blank card is included for you to substitute you own questions if you’d like.
