Mountain Race - Friends Of Twenty Game

Your students will love to play with the Maths Mountain Race game! A great activity for Maths rotations, students must race around the game board completing math mountains (Friends of Twenty) until they have covered all their numbers. Both a colour and black and white version of the game are included.

Learning goals

  • We are learning to show that one- and two-digit numbers can be partitioned in different ways, such as partitioning two-digit numbers into tens and ones.
  • We are learning to count collections of items (e.g. coins) and skip count by 5s or 10s to record how many in the collection.
  • We are learning to count collections to 100 using place value groupings.
  • We are learning to add and subtract numbers within 20, using a variety of strategies, e.g. counting on, counting back, partitioning, subitising and part-part whole knowledge of numbers to 10 and to use the language of 'plus' and 'minus' in story problems.
  • We are learning to model problems involving addition and subtraction, including simple whole-dollar money problems, in practical role-play situations.
  • We are learning to use a range of strategies, to solve simple addition and subtraction problems.

MA1-1WM old Describes mathematical situations and methods using everyday and some mathematical language, actions, materials, diagrams and symbols MA1-2WM old Uses objects, diagrams and technology to explore mathematical problems MA1-3WM old Supports conclusions by explaining or demonstrating how answers were obtained MA1-4NA old Applies place value, informally, to count, order, read and represent two- and three-digit numbers MA1-6NA old Uses a range of mental strategies and concrete materials for multiplication and division MA1-5NA old Uses a range of strategies and informal recording methods for addition and subtraction involving one- and two-digit numbers MA1-RWN-02 new Reasons about representations of whole numbers to 1000, partitioning numbers to use and record quantity values MA1-FG-01 new Uses the structure of equal groups to solve multiplication problems, and shares or groups to solve division problems MA1-CSQ-01 new Uses number bonds and the relationship between addition and subtraction to solve problems involving partitioning
VCMNA089 Represent and solve simple addition and subtraction problems using a range of strategies including counting on, partitioning and rearranging parts VCMNA094 Recognise the importance of repetition of a process in solving problems VCMNA086 Develop confidence with number sequences to and from 100 by ones from any starting point. Skip count by twos, fives and tens starting from zero VCMNA087 Recognise, model, read, write and order numbers to at least 100. Locate these numbers on a number line VCMNA092 Recognise, describe and order Australian coins according to their value VCMNA090 Represent practical situations that model sharing VCMNA088 Count collections to 100 by partitioning numbers using place value

Australian Curriculum covers QLD / SA / WA / NT / TAS / ACT.

Modifications

Students may need to race around the board multiple times, in order to cross off all their numbers on the mountain.
