Learn to play cribbage! End of the Year Fun Math Games
Cribbage is a great game for students to learn to help with math skills, problem solving, and community. I use this slide show to teach my 2nd, 3rd, or 4th graders how to play cribbage.

This lesson breaks it all down for you (I recommend teaching it in 4 separate lessons with practice in between). Practice hands are included
