Hi - LO
HI - LO
Play three different versions of this game to practice addition, subtraction, or multiplication facts.
Materials: Deck of Cards minus the face cards
1. Place the entire deck face down in the center of the table.
2. Each player draws two cards from the top of the deck.
Addition Version: The two cards are added together. The highest number wins all the cards.
Subtraction Version: Players subtract the lower card from the higher card. The lowest number wins all of the cards.
Multiplication Version: Played the same way as the addition game, except that the two numbers are multiplied together.
In the event that the two or more players have the same sum, difference, or product those players engage in a tie breaker where each player draws two more cards. At that point, the winner takes all the cards from the initial round and the tiebreaker round.
