This is a game for two players and

you will need one pen (or pencil) and one die.

1) Choose who will be the ‘Solver’ and who will be the ‘Roller’.

2) When the game begins, the Solver starts answering the questions below.

3) While the Solver is answering questions, the Roller rolls a die until they roll a
‘6’.

4) When a ‘6’ is rolled, the two players swap, so the Solver becomes the new
Roller, and the Roller becomes the new Solver. Continue playing, swapping
roles every time a ‘6’ is rolled.

5) The winner of the game is the player who answers the last question correctly.

and cover it with a counter. If the answer appears more
than once, they can choose to cover either of those
squares with their counter.
4. Next, player 2 takes their turn and repeats steps 2 and 3.
5. Continue taking turns, choosing two of the numbers above, subtracting the
smallest from the largest and covering the answer with a counter.

6. The winner is the first person to cover four squares in a horizontal,

vertical or diagonal line.

 Subtracting two digit numbers



Big Differences
This is a game for two or more players
and you will need a pack of cards.

In this game:
• Aces count as one.
• Tens, Jacks, Queens and Kings are not needed and can be
removed from the deck.

How to play
1. Place a pile of cards, face down, in the
centre of the table.
2. Deal four cards to each player.
3. Players should make a pair of two-digit
numbers using their cards. For example,
these four cards can make 73 and 35.
4. Each player should now find the
difference between their two numbers
and share this with the other players,
Remember to subtract
e.g. 73 - 35 = 38
 the smaller number
from the larger one.

5.The player with the largest difference scores one point and
the cards are returned to the bottom of the pile.

Repeat this process, dealing four cards to

each player and finding the biggest
difference each time.

The final winner is the first person

to score eight points.

 Number Detectives
This is a game for two or more players.
First, choose a player to be the secret agent.
The other players become the number detectives.

1. The secret agent chooses a number from 1 to 50.

2. The number detectives take it in turns to ask the secret agent
about their chosen number. For example:
• Is it larger than 10?
• Is it even?
• Is it in the five times table?
3. The secret agent can only answer by saying ‘Yes’ or ‘No’.
4. The number detectives can use
the number grid below to help
them work out the secret number.
For example, if the secret agent
says ‘Yes’ to the question ‘Is it
larger than 10?’, the number
detectives can cross out 1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.
5. Take turns to ask questions until
somebody is able to work out the
secret number.

To play this Bingo game, you will need:

• One set of Bingo clues (on page 2)

• One set of Bingo cards (on pages 4-7). 32 different cards are available.

How to Play

• Give one card to each child in your class.

• Choose a number at random from the list on page 2 and then read the
matching clue for that number. Colour the number on your clue sheet so
you know which numbers have already been called out.

• Your children should then work out the answer from the clue and find it on
their bingo card.

• If the number appears on each child’s card, they can colour it. If it is not
on their card, they don’t have to do anything.

• Depending on the age / ability of your children, you may wish to discuss
each clue and work out the answer together before moving on.

• Continue choosing random numbers and reading the clues.

• The winner is the first child to colour all eight numbers on their card.

Other variations / activities:

• You could also have another ‘winner’ for the first to colour a horizontal
row of four numbers.

• Give children the list of numbers on page 3 and ask them to think of their
own clues.
