Description

Are you looking for a fun and exciting way to teach your kids addition and subtraction facts within 10? Look no further than Knockout, an action-packed math game that will keep your children moving and thinking! With this thrilling game, 1st grade math students can practice adding and subtracting within 10 without even realizing they are learning. Players who are first to answer the question correctly can eliminate other players from the game - all while having a blast!


A QUICK LOOK AT KNOCKOUT™ & HOW IT IS PLAYED


1 - Divide your class into 2 single file lines

2 - Display the first slide of any of the addition and subtraction games

3 - The player at the front of his/her line faces off against the player from the other team: the first player to answer his/her question correctly wins and returns to the end of the line!

4 - The player who does not win goes to sit on the team "bench" to cheer on the team!


BUT WAIT: That's not all.

If a player faces these slides, the following could happen:


✅ Double Free Pass: Both players automatically get to stay in the game!

✅ Double Knockout™: Both players are automatically out!

✅ Knockout™/Free Pass: One player leaves, one stays!

✅ Pick a Pal: Choose a player from the bench to return to the game!

This activity has been used daily in my classroom! The students get a few minutes here and there to practice these quick facts and they LOVE it. They are encouraging to peers, love using the game, and beg to have a few minutes of knockout throughout the day. Students have been making great progress with quick math facts by using this tool weekly. I have loved having this on hand for a few minutes of fill in or longer periods of game play on Fun Friday!

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Add and subtract within 20, demonstrating fluency for addition and subtraction within 10. Use strategies such as counting on; making ten (e.g., 8 + 6 = 8 + 2 + 4 = 10 + 4 = 14); decomposing a number leading to a ten (e.g., 13 - 4 = 13 - 3 - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9); using the relationship between addition and subtraction (e.g., knowing that 8 + 4 = 12, one knows 12 - 8 = 4); and creating equivalent but easier or known sums (e.g., adding 6 + 7 by creating the known equivalent 6 + 6 + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13).
