Let’s BUMP the other teams to score points!

BUMP is a No Prep Math game where students bump other teams off the platform to score points based on how quickly they answered the questions correctly!

The game is playable with the whole class together, or you can play it as small groups. All questions and answers are included. This version is Grade 6 Math, One Step Subtract Equation Word Problems. It is a digital resource, no printouts required.

How It Works:

• The game runs in PowerPoint, and you can edit the questions and answers if you like.
• Make 3 teams, and set up platform (desk, binder, whatever), and a shooting position about 5 feet away.
• Tap the GO TO 1 to go to the first question.
• The teams race to answer the questions correctly on a piece of paper. When done, the designated shooter holds the paper up.
• After all shooters are ready, see the answer to the question.
• Shots are taken in reverse order of completion, if answered correctly.
• No shots if the answer is wrong.
• Teams get 1 point if their paper is on the desk after everyone has taken their shot.
• If you bump any other paper off the platform, you get 2 points for each one bumped.
• Add up the points and tap the digits to add them to the score
• Repeat until all 20 questions have been asked.
• Questions vary in difficulty and the answer is provided after each question.

The game will run on:

• iPads that run PowerPoint (free app)
• Smartboards
• Projectors
• Desktops
• Laptops
• Any device that runs PowerPoint

This game can be played together as a class using a smartboard/projector, or it can be played by individuals and small groups on iPads or computers that run PowerPoint.

No additional licenses required for the students in your class!

All of the images and colors are included just as you see it. Each user needs to purchase their own license, and the files may not be shared or sold to anyone, but you are free to make as many versions as you like for your own use.
