Before beginning, remove cards showing the numbers 6‒10 and set aside. Students take turns picking two number cards (0–5) and finding the value of their sum. They check off the number that represents the value of the sum (0–10). Then they fill in the matching addition expression on their recording sheets. The partner who checks off the most numbers wins.

Variation:

Students can roll two cubes (and treat 6 as a wild card) to provide visual support for each quantity.

Students take turns picking two number cards (0–10) and finding the value of their difference. They check off the number that represents the value of the difference (0–10). Then they write the matching subtraction expression on their recording sheets. The partner who checks off the most numbers wins.

Variation:

Students can choose whether to add or subtract after picking two number cards. If students choose to add, they can write the matching addition expression on their recording sheet by drawing a vertical line on the subtraction symbol to change it to an addition symbol.

Students take turns picking two number cards that are multiples of 10 (0–90). They choose whether to make an addition or subtraction expression. Students check off the value of the sum or difference (0–90). Then they write the addition or subtraction expression on their recording sheets. The partner who checks off the most numbers wins.
