Perseverance This game is for two players. Player 1 takes the game sheet for PLAYER 1 plus the answer key for PLAYER 2. Player 2 takes the game sheet for PLAYER 2 plus the answer key for PLAYER 1. The first card is turned face up on the table. At the same time, both players work on solving the problem number on their game sheet that matches the card . (This way, there is less down time for each player). Each player checks the answer of his/her opponent. Each player with a correct answer gets to draw a line diagonally between two dots anywhere on the game board. One player heads in a horizontal path while the other heads vertically across the board. They cannot cross paths. While trying to block the opponent, the player that draws an uninterrupted bridge from his/her side of the board to the other side wins. Note: Although players draw and work on their cards at the same time, they need to take turns when drawing lines on the board. Therefore, before the game starts, after the cards are shuffled, each player draws a card. The person who draws the highest problem number is the first to draw a line on the board (if his/her answer is correct). ATTENTION: There is no reason to buy multiple copies of our games.

Math Baseball Instructions First, you need to cut out the cards and game pieces. Specialty cards such as “You’re Out” cards, “Strike” cards, and "Homerun" cards get shuffled in with the rest of the cards). After shuffling the cards, player 1 takes the game board labeled "Player 1" and the answers for “Player 2” and player 2 takes the game board labeled "Player 2" and the answers for “Player 1". (Each player will be checking the other player's answers). Players each draw a card from the pile and follow the directions on the card. If the card has a problem number on it, the player locates and completes that problem on their problem sheet. A point is earned for each run (crossing home plate). Players check each other’s answers and keep score recording runs, strikes, outs, and innings on their copy of the score sheet. When a player gets 3 outs, he/she begins a new inning. (3 strikes = 1 out just like in real baseball.) Because each player is considered a separate team, their innings may not end at the same time. However, scores are compared after each player has played the same number of innings. The player with the higher score (the most runs) is the winner. The game ends after each player completes 9 innings or a set number of innings if time does not permit 9 innings. Remember: Scores are compared after both players complete the same number of innings. Because of "outs," players will not necessarily be on the same inning at exactly the same time. ATTENTION: There is no reason to buy multiple copies of our games.

Solve that Task This game is for two players and uses 3 sets of cards: One set of Game Cards, a set of You Did It! cards, and a set of Better Luck Next Time cards. Player 1 takes the problem sheet for player 1 plus the answer key for player 2. Player 2 takes the problem sheet for player 2 plus the answer key for player 1. (Players check each other's answers) The first card from the stack of game cards is turned over and both players answer the matching card number on their problem sheets. Both players work on solving the problems at the same time. (This way, there is less down time for each player). Players with correct answers draw a card from the You Did It pile, players with incorrect answers draw a card from the Better Luck Next Time pile. The winner is the player with the most points after 20 rounds or after a predetermined number of rounds. ATTENTION: There is no reason to buy multiple copies of our games.

TASK CARDS Task cards can be used for a variety of things. If you Google “Task Cards,” you will find web pages that list many uses, games, and tasks for them. For example. they can be: ● used as replacement game cards for popular board games ● placed around the room for students to find and answer ● used as practice for early finishers For variety, I included 3 different sets of task cards plus answer sheets in this unit. Two sets include 30 cards and one set includes 40 cards for a grand total of 100 cards.

Straight 7 Game (This can be played using colored pencils or crayons to mark the spaces. Each player needs to use a different color) Player 1 takes the problem sheet and cards for player 1 plus the answer key for player 2. Player 2 takes the problem sheet and cards for player 2 plus the answer key for player 1. (Players check each other's answers.) Players each draw a card from their own set of playing cards and answer the matching card number on their problem sheet. Both players work on solving the problems at the same time. (This way, there is less down time for each player). If a player's answer is correct, he/she gets to color in one block on the board that contains the card number of that card. (There are two spaces on the board for each card number). If both blocks with that number are already colored in because of a wild card, the player loses that turn by not getting to color in a block. Although they work on their problems at the same time, players need to take turns coloring in a block on the board. To see who goes first, players should each draw a card from one set of the playing cards. The one who draws the highest problem number goes first. The first player to get 7 blocks in a row wins the game. Also, in addition to trying to get 7 in a row, players should try to block the other player from getting 7 in a row. If all cards have been played and no one gets 7 in a row, the game is a tie. ATTENTION: There is no reason to buy multiple copies of our games.

Math Archery Player 1 takes the problem sheet for player 1 plus the answer key for player 2. Player 2 takes the problem sheet for player 2 plus the answer key for player 1. (Players check each other's answers) The first card from the stack of game cards is turned over and both players answer the matching card number on their problem sheets. Both players work on solving the problems at the same time. (This way, there is less down time for each player). After printing and cutting out the game cards, they should be shuffled well and placed on the game board in the designated spots based on color. Players take turns drawing a card from one of the four stacks of game cards. They can draw a card from any of the following stacks: 10-point cards (yellow) - These are not multiple choice and contain the most “missed the target” cards. (With this choice there is a chance for more points, but also a high chance ofgetting zero points for drawing a “missed the target” card.) 8-point cards (green) – These are multiple choice with 4 answer choices and slightly less “missed the target” cards. (With this choice, it is easier to get a correct answer and a decent amount of points, but there is also a fairly high chance of getting zero points for drawing a “missed thetarget” card.) 6-point cards (blue) – These are multiple choice with 3 answer choices and even less “missed the target” cards. (With this choice, it is even easier to get a correct answer and there are no “missed the target” cards. However, less points are awarded for a correct answer.) 4-point cards (gray) – These are multiple choice with 2 answer choices and the least amount of “missed the target” cards. (With this choice, the player has a very good chance (50/50) to get a correct answer with the least chance of getting zero points for drawing a “missed the target” card. However, it is also the one with the least amount of points awarded for a correct answer.) The player with the highest score after each player has taken 15 turns wins the match. Players may want to continue to play more matches with the remaining cards. Version 2: In this version, the game board is not needed. All cards should be shuffled together. Player 1 takes the problem sheet for player 1 and the answer sheet for player 2. Player 2 takes the problem sheet for player 2 and the answer sheet for player 1. (Players check each other's answers). Players take turns drawing a card from the stack of game cards and answer the matching card number on their problem sheet . If the answer is correct, the player gets the amount of points stated on the card. ATTENTION: There is no reason to buy multiple copies of our games.

Math Football The instructions are simple. Player 1 takes the problem sheet for player 1 plus the answer key for player 2. Player 2 takes the problem sheet for player 2 plus the answer key for player 1 Each player begins on the 50-yard line (Note: players head in opposite directions on the board), draws a card and completes the problem on the card. If the answer is correct, the player moves forward either 10 or 20 yards. (It will say how many yards to move on the card). If the answer is incorrect, the player does not move. If the player draws a penalty card, he/she must move back the stated number of yards. Both players work on solving their problems at the same time. (This way, there is less down time for each player). However, if one player finishes his/her problem quicker than the other player, he/she must wait for the other player to finish before moving on. Each player checks the answer of his/her opponent. Play continues until one player gets a touchdown and receives a point. Both players then start over on the 50 yard line. Play continues until one player reaches 4 points (or the number of points decided on at the beginning of the game).The player with 4 points wins the game. Alternate Version: Play continues until one player gets a touchdown and receives a point. THAT PLAYER ONLY starts over on the 50 yard line.

Cut and Paste Activity Students will cut out the tiles and then choose one and paste it onto the answer sheet where it says start. Next, they will solve the problem on the right side and locate the answer from the left side of one of the remaining tiles. Finally, they will paste that answer tile next to the first tile on the answer sheet. Following the pattern on the handout, they keep answering and pasting until all problems are solved. If done correctly, the answer on the first shape should match up with the problem on the last shape.

Five Squares Game Colored pencils or crayons work best for this game. Player 1 takes the PLAYER 1 game sheet plus the answer key for PLAYER 2. Player 2 takes the PLAYER 2 game sheet plus the answer key for PLAYER 1. Each player checks the other player's answers. DIRECTIONS: Choose a game board. Larger boards make it easier to get 5 squares in a row. After the cards are shuffled, each player draws a card. The person who draws the highest problem number goes first. To start the game, the top card from the deck should be turned over. Each player finds the problem number on their own game sheet and answers it. If the answer is correct, that player gets to color in one square on the board, trying to get 5 squares in a row, while blocking the other player from getting 5 in a row. If a player gets the answer wrong, that player does nothing on the board for that turn. (Important: Both players work on solving their problems at the same time, but they take turns coloring in the squares on the board, with the player who drew the highest card before the game going first. This way there is less down time for each player). The first player to get 5 squares in a row wins the game. There are also few “free” spaces on the board(s).
