Title - Adding Fun Game
By - Debbie Haren (additions by Kyle Yamnitz)
Primary Subject - Math
Secondary Subjects -
Grade Level - 3rd
Materials:
Pieces of papers with letters on them that look like license plates.
Plain paper
Create a chart to tell students what number each letter represents (makeup numbers for each letter depending on your students' level of proficiency).
Activity:
Make a chart that tells a certain number for each letter of the alphabet. For example..
A=6
B=3
C=2
D=7
and so on. After that is done put out the pretend license plates and have them add up the total on the license plates. For example if a license plate was
"bad", that would be = 3 + 6 + 7 = 16
The kids have a lot of fun doing this and they learn a lot from it. They could work in pairs or by themselves.
Extensions:
Many other games / activities could be developed from this. Examples are whose name is the most "valuable"? Who can create the most valuable word?
