Math Practice
- Collect $2.00
- Capture 5
- Xtra Math (https://xtramath.org/#/signin/classroom)
- Fast 10 (see rules below)
Each student gets 5 cards the rest are placed face down in the middle.
Each player looks at their card and looks for 2 cards that have a sum of 10. If they don't have anything to make 10 they discard one card and take a new card. If they do have 2 cards to make 10, things get interesting! In the center of the table is a group of spoons one less than the number of students in the group. The person who has 10 lays their 10 face up on the table and quickly grabs a spoon. The rest of the students have to be quick and pay attention so that they can also grab a spoon. The person left without a spoon gets a "T" and when they spell "TEN" they are out. If a student calls 10 and grabs a spoon without actually having a 10, putting 7 + 4 for example, then they are the one who has the "T" and the student without the spoon is safe for that round. It is a fun game and the kids get very into it.
