Preparing the Games
These are ‘Print and Play’ games.
Simply print the game on paper and it is ready.
Players will require pencils to play.

Each game is for 2 players with 2 games provided on each sheet so that the
players can play the game twice.

Using the Games

Math Centers – These games are ideal for a math center activity. Have the
children read the instructions themselves if possible as this is a great reading
comprehension activity.

Display on Smart Board – The games can be projected onto your smart board
and the class can be broken into 2 teams to play.

Homework – The games are also suitable for homework. They are a fun
alternative to regular homework and parents can be involved in playing the game
with their children. This is really popular with the kids and the parents.

Fast Finishers – The games are a perfect activity for those children who finish
their work early.

Students as Teachers - A worthwhile activity is to have children learn how to

play a game and then teach it to others. Teaching others how to play is a great
communication activity.

Buddy Class Activity – Another use for the games is to use them as a buddy
class activity. Have the younger students 'teach' their older buddies how to play
the game.

PLEASE NOTE: The version with correct spelling for the

UK, Canada, Australia and NZ, commences on page 7.
