I call these games Equation Maker games.     I have used these for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. They are really simple to draw up if you want to make your own or I have some premade ones available in my Math Board Games sets.   To make an addition one, you just need to draw 3 blocks then add the addition sign and equals sign. Put in the numbers that could make addition equations and it is ready to play.   The players make equations by covering one number in each set on a turn, e.g. 3+9=12.

This game is an addition game but it does more than just practice addition facts.   2 Players take turns to roll 2 dice and add the number together. They then have to cover any 2 numbers on the game board that add to this total. Sounds easy but as the game progresses and there aren't many numbers left uncovered, they have to really start thinking.   I love games that make kids think and really apply their math skills and this game does just that!   Once they have mastered this one, they can try the more advanced version where they roll 3 dice and cover 2 or 3 numbers that add the total of the dice. Both of these are available along with 5 other game boards in my new Spiders Math Games Addition and Subtraction . Available now at www.teache...
