Purpose:

The purpose of this activity is to help your child to practise adding multiples of 10 that make 100.

What you need:

Game Cards (PDF,64KB) . You can print these or make your own.

What to do:

Give each player 5 fact cards (“10 + ?” format) . The fact cards are placed face up in front of each player. The number cards are cut, shuffled and placed in a face down pile between the players.
The players take turns to take a card from the pile, if they can use it to complete a number fact they keep the card but if not the card is returned to the bottom of the pile.
The winner is the first player to complete their 5 fact cards.

What to expect your child to do:

To correctly complete the number facts by adding multiples of 10.

Variation:

Use the fact cards as flash cards and ask your child to quickly give you the missing number as you show them the cards.

He Whakawhitinga Kōrero:

  • Anei ētahi kāri tāpiritanga e rima māu. E rima anō māku. (Here are 5 addition cards for you. Five for me.)
  • Whakatakotoria ō kāri ki mua i a koe, ko ngā mata ki runga. (Put your cards face up in front of you.)
  • Riwhiriwhia ngā kāri tau, ka whakaputu ai ko ngā mata ki raro. (Shuffle the number cards. Put them in a pile, face down.)
  • Kei a koe i te tuatahi. Tangohia tētahi kāri tau. (Your turn first. Take a number card.)
  • Puritia mēnā ko tēnā tau hei whakaoti i tētahi o ō tāpiritanga? (Keep it, if that number completes one of your additions.)
  • Ki te kore e taea e tēnā kāri tētahi tāpiritanga te whakaoti, me whakahoki ki raro o te putunga kāri. (If you can’t complete an addition with that card, put it back on the bottom of the pile.)
  • Kua oti katoa i a koe ō tāpiritanga e rima. Ko koe te toa. (You have completed all of your five additions. You’re the winner.)
