Students draw a card from each pile and add them together.  They write that number into one of the empty spaces.  Players take turns adding numbers to their game board trying to make the statements true.  When all the statements are filled out, that student is the winner.  If they are unable to go, they miss a turn.

Split to Add

1.NBT.4
Module 9
Differentiation Activity/Fundamentals Game

Player 1 draws a card from each pile.  They must mentally add the numbers by splitting the tens and ones. They will then place their counters on the matching sum.  Since some numbers are on the board more than once, they must choose which one will help them more.  After one student has five counters in a row, they are winner.

On the Edge

1.NBT.4
Module 9
Differentiation Activity/Fundamentals Game

All students place two counters on the number one. This is the only time more than one counter can be on the same space.   Students take turns drawing a card and moving one of their counters by adding 1,2,3,10,20, or 30.  Their goal is to get their counters on a shaded region of the game board.  Once both counters are in a shaded region, that student wins.
