Each week I will highlight a math game/activity.
Learn it, play it, teach it to others (siblings, parent, grandparent over the phone, etc.) if possible! Game: Make 20 You will need: Deck of cards — face cards removed. Aces = 1. Please let me know if you need cards! Rules ■■ Each player is dealt 6 cards. Remaining cards are placed in the draw pile in the middle. ■■ The first player goes by trying to find a combination of cards in their hand that add to 20. When they have a total sum of 20, they show their opponent how they made 20. They set the used cards aside in a pile, their bank and then draw enough cards to replace the cards played from the draw pile. ■■ Players take turns trying to make a sum of 20 with the cards in their hand. ■■ If a player is unable to make 20, then they must draw a card and their turn ends. ■■ Play continues until all the cards have been drawn and no one can make 20. ■■ At the end of play, the players count the number of cards they have in their pile. The player with the most cards wins. Bonus: Take a picture of one (or more!) of your combinations and send it to Mrs. Farrell! How many different combinations did you make? What numbers are easiest to use? Draw some pictures of your combinations. Use objects to show some of your combinations (lego, blocks, beans, macaroni, buttons, etc).
