Domino - Giant Numbers

Product: EP-MM-002

Includes: Domino - Giant Numbers

Unlike ordinary dominoes that have spots on them, these number dominoes have numbers and sums. On the left side of each domino is a lone number (e.g. 8), while the right side has a sum (e.g. 1+6).

How to play: (This is just an example; feel free to change the game to fit your needs.)

1. The teacher places a domino on the table, say 8; 1+6.

(Divide the rest of the dominos equally amongst the children in the class.)

2. The first child plays a domino with the answer 7 next to the 1+6 side of the teacher’s domino. Let us say we have: 8; 1+6 and now 7; 3+2
3. The next child has to play a domino with the number 5 next.
4. If a child doesn’t have a domino that contains an answer to the last played domino’s sum, then the child skips a turn.
5. Choose how to end the game:
   1. The game goes on until all the children have played all their dominoes (no winning or losing).
   2. The winner is the first child who has played all his or her dominoes.

This game motivates children to do mental calculations quickly. It is a fun way to teach and reinforce number recognition and basic addition.

For children aged 6 and up.
