Rock Paper Math

Number sense – practice adding numbers up to 10

  • Using one hand (4 fingers and thumb)

Just like the game they are already familiar with, two players face each other and pound their fists, but say: ‘’Rock, Paper, Math’’.

Each player shows one hand with fingers showing a number 0 – 5.

Both players try to shout out first the sum of the two numbers.

Extra challenges:

  1. Subtract or multiply instead of add.
  2. Add numbers up to 20 using both hands.
  3. Play with three students instead of two.
