Next Number Battle – Card Game
A simple and fun game that uses playing cards to investigate sequencing numbers. Students battle by saying the “next” number and get to the end of their game board first. A colour and black & white version is included.
A great activity to use in Maths rotations, groups and partner activities. It is also perfect for fast finishers.
