Zap It!! - Math Game

Okay, so I have to give credit to my friend Michelle for introducing me to this awesome game!  It is a math game that helps kids with their facts. I use it in fourth grade with multiplication facts. I also make a higher level one with division facts. The game can be played with 2+ players. Student draws a stick and must give the correct answer to keep the stick. If the student misses it then he/she must put the stick back. Students keep playing back and forth. If a student draws a ZAP IT! stick then they must put ALL their sticks back. Student with the most sticks wins the game!  **Great anchor station :)

Here is a picture of what the game looks like below. I also made a label that you can wrap on the outside of your can! Enjoy!

  12. You could also make it a game of war. Make it a race to see who can answer them the fastest. Person with most sticks at the end wins
