Playing Math Match is one of my first graders' FAVORITE math center activities! I love being able to teach my kids a math game one time and then play that game over and over throughout the year with different math skills. This saves so much time and helps students to be independent during math centers!

How to Play Math Match:

  • Turn all cards face down in rows.
  • Take turns turning over 2 cards.
  • If it is a match, keep the cards and go again.
  • If it is not a match, turn the cards back over and it is the next friend’s turn.
  • After all matches are found, fill in the recording sheet.

Other Ways to Play:

Match and Record: Students work independently or collaboratively to match all the cards as quickly as they can. When finished they can fill in the recording sheet.

Partner Pairing (Stand up, hand up, pair up): This is a whole group math activity to practice a skill. I also like using it when I want to partner up my students. I give each student a card. When I say go, all students stand up, put their hand up and walk around the classroom. They find a partner and high five. Partners check to see if their cards are a match. If they are they sit down together. If not they say, “Maybe next time” and continue walking around with a hand up looking for a new partner. This continues until all partners are matched up!

• I also love using these cards at my small group table during math stations to practice a skill and as a fast finisher activity! There are SO many ways to use these cards all year long!

  • Place Value - Base 10

Teacher Tip - make a grading station in your classroom with the answer key and colorful pens so students can check their own work! This saves you time and the kids LOVE it!

To prep this activity- simply print on card stock, laminate if you wish, and cut the cards.

I love that you can prep once and use the cards over and over!

Note: Print on Card Stock so cards are not see-through when playing memory!

OR Print Black and Write version on colored paper!

I hope your students love playing math match as much as mine do!
