MATH CARDS
Objective:
The first player to collect the most points with a score of 100 points or more wins the game. Use strategy and math skills (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and/or exponents) to score points. This game is for 2 to 5 players (ages 4 and over).
Set Up:
Separate the (blue back) cards from the (red back) cards and shuffle each deck. The (red back) deck has 10 red cards numbered (0-9). * Spread the cards out face down and each player will randomly select 2 cards. * Place your selected (red back) cards face up on the table (showing the red numbers) in front of you. * Place any remaining (red back) cards aside face down (left over cards). The (blue back) deck has 45 gold, green, & blue cards numbered (0-12). Also there is one wild card that can be made into any number from (0-12). * Cut the deck for high card to determine order of play from right to left. * Place the card deck in the center of the players face down.
Advanced Game Play and Rules Options: 9) For multiplication and division only, up to three (blue back) cards can be used per operation. Two of these (blue back) cards may be combined. Combining is arranging two cards together in any combination, not adding the cards together. a) Multiplication - combine two (blue back) cards to form the 1st multiple. Use one different (blue back) card as the 2nd multiple. Example: The three (blue back) cards are 3, 5, and 9. Your (red back) cards are 5 and 7. You can combine the 5 and 9 to form 59. Thus, 59 x 3 = 177. Since 177 ends with a 7, collect the cards. b) Division - combine two (blue back) cards to form the dividend. Use one different (blue back) card for the divisor. One of your (red back) cards will be the quotient. The division problem must divide evenly and have no remainder. Example: The three (blue back) cards are 2, 4, and 6 Your (red back) cards are 5 and 7, then you can combine the 2 and 4 to form 42. Thus, 42 divided by 6 = 7. Since 7 ends with a 7, collect the cards.
Types of Games:
Players will agree upon which math operations will be used. * Choose any 2, 3, 4, or 5 of the following combinations: (Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division, Exponents) Note: For a more challenging game; * Only chose either addition or subtraction along with any other math operations. Example: Choose (addition, division, and exponents). * You may perform exponents up to the 3rd power and beyond if agreed. Additional options: * You may play teams (okay to help team members if agreed). * You may use your Cipher Quick math board if agreed. * Use the 15 second timer for time limits per turn if agreed. Flip once for 15 sec, twice for 30 sec, and etc per turn.

Example of Play:
View example of game play on-line at: www.picturemath.com 1st player (red back) cards (0 and 4) 2nd player (red back) cards (1 and 9) 3rd player (red back) cards (3 and 5) 4th player (red back) cards (7 and 8) Notes: * The answer must end with one of your (red back) card numbers to collect the (blue back) cards. * You must say the problem and answer correctly on the first attempt to collect the (blue back) cards. (first rotation) 1st player's turn / the two (blue back) cards flipped are 5 and 1 / say 5 - 1 = 4 (collect / ends with 4) 2nd player's turn / flip (blue back) card is a 9 / no play available / card still on table (9) Note: you need at least two cards in the center to perform a math operation. 3rd player's turn / flip (blue back) card is a 3 / say 9 divide by 3 = 3 (collect/ ends with 3 ) 4th player's turn / flip (blue back) card is a 8 / no play available / cards still on table (8) (second rotation) 1st player's turn / flip (blue back) card is a 7 / no play available / cards still on table (8, 7) 2nd player's turn / flip (blue back) card is a 5 / no play available / cards still on table (8, 7, 5) Note: There was a play that was missed by the player. Could have said ( 8 -7 = 1) because they have a red 1. Next player's turn. 3rd player's turn / flip (blue back) card is the wild card. Decides to make the wild card an 11 / say 11-8 = 3 (collect / ends with 3). Then say 7 x 5 = 35 (collect / ends with 5). 4th player's turn / flip (blue back) card is a 7 / no play available / card still on table (7)
