Quick Cups

This is seriously the easiest game. All you need is some plastic or paper cups, a sharpie, a timer and a cute little learner to pull this one off. If your student/child enjoys being beating the clock then they will love Quick Cups. If not, don't sweat it and find another game (or play this one without the timer).

Also think about using this game for learning other material like times tables, shapes, etc... Pretty much anything you would put on a flash card, you can put on the cups and turn it into a game! Enjoy!

Division War

I never knew how versatile the game of War could be until I learned so many variations from RightStart Math (you can buy the cards and card game book here). It's a good thing they've come up with so many ways to use this game as a teaching tool because who doesn't love the good old fashioned game? Check out my latest video showing yet another way to turn this favorite game into a sneaky way to teach children:

Telling Time: Hour Memory

OK, first of all, I call my daughter the wrong name here but after spending the weekend in PA with my sister Amy, can I please get a pass on this one?!?! 😜

This game is about as simple as they come and you can make the cards you need to play it in just a few minutes. Of course, I recommend the Clock Games Kit from RightStart Math because it will give you tons of games to play with your younger elementary students to work on their time telling skills.

Division Card Game

Here's another great game from RightStart Math's "Math Games" book. This was our first time playing it so you'll see we are just learning our way through it but that's part of the process, right? You can use my affiliate link to purchase any of the items in my videos.
