Homework Due:
Addition Battle
Created by Box Cars and One Eyed Jacks
1. Shuffle the cards (ace=1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,) or (ace=1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 7, 8, 9).
Deal all the cards out.
2. To play, turn two cards over and add the numbers together to
find the sum.
3. Flip a penny. If the penny lands on heads-whoever has the
greatest sum gets the cards. If it lands on tails-whoever has the
lowest sum gets the cards.
4. Don’t forget your math talk! “____is the greater sum or _____is
the least sum” depending on the flip of the coin.
5. Take turns turning over your two cards and then flipping the
coin.
6. If you and your partner end up turning over the same cards you
will have a battle! Each of you should lay three cards from your
pile face down and then two cards face up. Whoever wins
depends if you are looking for the greater or least sum.
