Rules of the Game:

Goal The team with the most points when the game ends, wins
Rules Once the adult calls out the condition, the groups are allowed to discuss before
arranging their numbers

Students can only draw the number of cards required for that number. For
example, if a number goes into the thousands, only 4 cards can be drawn from
the pile.

Students are not allowed to swap out cards they drew from the pile

Each prompt is allocated one point, so the winner of that round can get a
maximum of one point
Steps Step 1: Place the digit notecards face down in a shuffled pile in front of each
group

Step 2: The adult calls out a prompt such as “build the greatest number you can
with 4 digits and write it in words”

Step 3: The students then randomly draw 4 cards from the pile in front of them
and make the largest 4-digit number possible and write it out in words on paper
Step 4: The team with the largest number and a correctly written number in
words, gets one point

Step 5: The game repeats with the adult calling out different prompts or the
teams taking turns to create and call out different prompts.

Sample prompts include:


● Shuffle the cards and pick 3 digit cards and arrange them to make the
largest number
● Shuffle the cards and pick 2 digit cards and arrange them to make the
largest number

Variations of the 1. This game can be played individually instead of in teams


Game 2. This can be played with low support (without an adult) by creating
question cards that need to be drawn by the players
3. The game can be played with every player or team having all 22 cards
with them instead of only drawing the necessary cards
Enrichment This game can be used for any target topic. For example, instead of place values,
it can be targeted for angles, time, measurements, number operations or
probability.
Simplification The players are allowed to swap cards one time if they are not satisfied with the
first set of cards drawn
