✄ Teacher Note: I made the lines around the cards wide so that you can overlay them to cut several at a time and still stay “in the lines”. This makes set-up even faster and saves you teacher-time! 🙂
Here’s What’s Included:
Dinosaur Theme
Addition Extension – 3-Digit Addition with Regrouping Center – This can be a matching or memory game. Students add 3-digit numbers on task cards and match them to their answers. A recording sheet is also included for students to write their answer as a record of their work.
Triceratops Subtraction – 3-Digit Subtraction With Regrouping Center – Students find the difference that completes each equation on the task cards and match it. There is a recording sheet also included for their answers.
Spiny Subtraction – Subtraction with 0(s) in the minuend – This matching game focuses on “subtraction across 0s”. It is a wonderful game for those students who are still struggling with this skill. Very helpful and the kids love playing it. It can be played individually or with a partner.
Mesozoic Missing Addends – This 3-Digit Missing Addends game will be helpful for students practicing mixed addition and subtraction using patterns and relationships. This matching game has the “unknown” as either of the addends.
RAWR-ing Over 1,000! – A student favorite! This fun and engaging game will have your students using addition and subtraction as well as number sense. In this game, students add two three-digit numbers to get as close to 1,000 as possible without going over. In order to determine who is closest, students must also use subtraction. This is a great game for approximating sums, place value, higher order thinking skills, and probability. Print and go recording sheets are included, but this can also be played on write-wipe boards or in student notebooks.
Catastrophic Capture – Another favorite! This is a board game for partners. Students use strategies to fluently add and subtract within 1,000. To play, students add or subtract 15 to the number they spin. They capture (cover) a space that has that sum or difference. To win, they must be the first to Capture Four In A Row!
Cover the Dinosaur – Such a fun one! Students use strategies and place value to add and subtract. They roll a die and move that number of spaces. They find their answer on one of the dinosaurs in the center of the game board and cover that dinosaur with a counter. If they land on a “Lucky Dinosaur”, they get to cover any dinosaur! The player to cover the last dinosaur is the winner.
Build a Dino! – This is one of my favorites. I love seeing the strategies students use! For this board game, students add and subtract 25, 50, and 75 (think quarters!) within 1,000. They place the Build A Dino game cards upside down in a stack, then turn over the first card and find its match on the game board. The winner is the player who is first to complete a dino picture.
