As soon as your student can recognize counting and writing by tens, they are ready for this game (first grade A Beka curriculum). This game uses money to introduce the idea of sets or multiplication. Counting By Tens using Dimes will help your student enjoy practicing this concept. Students should read the card (or say what it represents) as they play it.
Two card options are available, one with labels (ie ‘one dime = 10 cents’) and one with coins only.
All of the card games on the teachwithgames.com website use modified, old favorite card game rules. Like the popular game ‘Skip-bo’, is modified Solitaire (with friends), this Gotcha game is also. Placing cards in a sequence, a simple but very entertaining activity.
