**Ideas for customizing:
Play games for numbers 0-9 or 10 to start. Add other numbers as they are learned.
1)Limit number of formats to start. As students are able to recognize different formats, add them to the games to increase difficulty.
2)For Slap-It! Choose any set as your center pile. The best would be the style that the one with which the student is having most difficulty. This will help them to focus on finding formats that they have an easier time recognizing.
Teacher Instructions:
Print on card stock and/or laminate the cards. (Card stock is recommended because some children will try to see through the cards.) Laminating might be prohibitive due to the number of cards needed to create multiple decks/multiple games. If you cannot laminate, card stock is a MUST!
Each type of cards is a different style for easy sorting.
**Here is an example of the Slap-It! Directions:
Instructions:
Needs one set of cards for CENTER pile
Use 2-4 copies of one set of cards for PLAYING cards or
2-4 sets of different cards for PLAYING cards
To play: 2-4 players
Place the CENTER cards face down in a pile.
Deal the PLAYING cards equally among players. Place them face down in a pile in front of each player.
Decide the first player.
Flip over one of the CENTER cards.
In clockwise order players flip one card at a time. When a PLAYING card is flipped that matches the CENTER card: SLAP-IT!
The first player to slap the card takes the center pile of cards that have been played and adds them to the bottom of their own pile.
Flip another CENTER card and continue playing.
Game is finished when time is up or one player has all the PLAYING cards.
