STRATEGIES & GAMES

Play Terrific Tens Go Fish!Make practicing addition facts

more fun with this spin off of the traditional “Go Fish” game. As you work with your child on his math facts, it will be helpful to find tricks and strategies to help him build his confidence and skill. One way to do this is to have him learn the combinations of numbers that add up to ten. This game is an exciting way to practice that strategy. And he'll be building skills that he'll use for years to come.

. Chances are, he'll want to go to a store and make a purchase using his own allowance and savings. In which case, he will need to know what bills and coins he'll need to make his purchase. And when it comes to numbers, practice makes perfect. This activity will not only help him practice his math skills, like counting and addition and subtraction, but it will also give him a chance to learn more about things like purchasing and money exchange, which are important concepts to learn as he grows up.
