The Math Operations Game

In this clip I'm going to show you a fun activity that your kids can do to practice their math operations. First you'll need a piece of paper and you'll need to cut it into sections and then on those sections you'll need to write the numbers zero to nine. Then on some other small pieces of paper you'll need to write the four basic operation, times or multiplication, subtraction sign, the plus sign and the division sign. You're going to make two stacks. You're going to make a stack of your operation signs and a stack of your numbers. Your child is going to draw three numbers and two operation signs, and they're going to arrange these in any way they want to make the biggest number they can using the operations they've drawn and the numbers they have. We're going to use nine times eight and then minus two. Nine times eight is seventy-two minus two is seventy. And then they practice again to do it another way to see if they could get a bigger number than that. Two times nine is eighteen minus eight gives you ten. So, now my first set of operations made the largest number. So then they'd shuffle it back up and then we draw again. Three more numbers and two more operations. Again, they would try to arrange them in order to make the largest number possible.
