Here is how to play a game of speed using a any deck of cards to work on math facts. Can be used with addition, subtraction, or multiplication where you have one shuffled deck of cards and flip two cards at once.
- Each player must quickly add, subtract, or multiply the values of the two flipped cards together.
- The first player to shout out the correct answer wins that round and collects the pair of cards.
- If there is a tie, a tiebreaker round is played with another set of two cards.
- The game continues until the entire deck has been used.
- The player with the most cards at the end of the game is declared the winner.
- To make the game more challenging, you can set a timer for each round.
This game can also be played by yourself. Challenge yourself by setting a timer for a minute or see how long it takes you to get through the entire deck.
This game is a fun and engaging way to improve math skills while enjoying some friendly competition.
This is a favorite with my kids and is played daily.
