Doubles Plus One Addition Game - JUMP is a printable addition game which teaches the Doubles Plus One Addition Facts. These number facts are essential for efficient mental computations. 'Doubles Plus One' makes the learning of these number facts fun
In my classrooms we do a lot of work on the need for efficiency in doing mental computations. We aim for, 'SEE IT, SAY IT' . This game offers heaps of opportunity
to discuss 'efficient' addition strategies. It also demonstrates how those who use efficient strategies will do better at the game.
Three Ways to Play:
1. Draw this grid outside on the concrete using chalk. Each square should be about 30cm by 30cm.
2. Draw the grid inside the classroom on the carpet with chalk. NB The students will love you but the cleaners might have to be reassure you will clean up the carpet hehehe
3 - Print out the game board and have the students place their fingers on the the little frog feet.
How to Play:
1. Two players stand with their feet in the large feet facing the addition game board.
2. A 'Caller' asks a question from one of the cards.
3. When a player has worked out the answer they must jump from their spot onto the correct answer. Do not move until you know the answer.
4. Players then rotate positions but the winner stays to compete with next player.
NB The object of this addition game is to have a bit of fun while you learn the addition facts. So practice your 'Doubles + One' number facts while you're waiting to play this addition game.
