HI-LO MATH CARD GAME

A Math game for Two Students with three game versions

Materials needed: a regular deck of cards

Rules:

• Take a regular deck of cards and pull out all of the face cards.(These will not be needed for the game)

• Have two students sit across from each other. Shuffle the deck and deal out all cards evenly between both players. Keep the cards face down in a pile.

• At the same time, each student draws two cards from their own pile. Their job depending on the game version (see below) picked, is to have a high or low card combination to win.

• The person with the highest/lowest number wins the cards (4 cards each round)

• The person with the most cards at the end of the game is the "winner".

Three game versions that can be played:

Place Value Game:

Example: Player #1 draws: 3 and 6. The highest number that can be created is 63.Player #2 draws: 4 and 8. The highest number that can be created is 84.84 is greater than 63, so Player #2 keeps all four cards.(Or play it so lowest combination wins!)

Example: Player #1 draws: 3 and 6. The sum of these cards is 9. 3+6 = 9

Player #2 draws: 4 and 8. The sum of these cards equal 12. 4+8=12

12 is larger than 9, so Player #2 keeps all four cards.

Example: Player #1 draws: 3 and 6. The difference of these cards equal 3. 6-3 = 3

Player #2 draws: 4 and 8. The difference of these cards is 4. 8-4=43 is less than 4, so Player #1 keeps all four cards.

Have fun Playing!
