Next I had 5 dimes, and 2 quarters and this also totaled $1.00. Finally, I had 2 quarters, 2 dimes, and 6 nickels. These are 3 different ways I combined coins to make $1.00. On a day you see number facts., use flash cards or play a game to practice your Cool Mathematics Books to Read: Counting On Frank by Rod Clement A Grain of Rice by Helena Clare Pittman The Hundred Penny Box by Sharon Bell Mathis Sideways Arithmetic from Wayside School by Louis Sachar Games to Play (Deck of Cards needed) 1. Multiplication Compare Remove all the face cards from a regular deck of playing cards. Treat the ace as a one. Deal out all the cards equally between 2 to 3 players. Each player turns over 2 cards and multiplies the numbers together. The person with the higher product wins the pile of cards. If you have the same product play 2 more cards. The person with the higher product wins both piles. 2. Close to 1000 Deal 8 cards to each player. Use any 6 of your cards to make two 3-digit numbers (Aces = 1; Jacks, Queens, & Kings = WILD cards, stand for any digit 0-9). Try to make a combination that when added is close to or exactly Write these two numbers in your journal. Example: Your turn over 1, 5, 4, 3, 1, 8, 3, 8 You combine 148 and 853 to make Your score is 1 since the difference between 1001 and 1000 is 1. You make a recording sheet in your journal like this, Round 1: = 1001 Score 1 Put the 6 cards you used in the discard pile. Keep the other two for the next round. Pick up 6 more cards and play 5 rounds. Add the score to each round. The lowest score after 5 rounds wins.
