Before and After

The Ministry is migrating nzmaths content to Tāhurangi.           
Relevant and up-to-date teaching resources are being moved to Tāhūrangi (tahurangi.education.govt.nz). 
When all identified resources have been successfully moved, this website will close. We expect this to be in June 2024. 
e-ako maths, e-ako Pāngarau, and e-ako PLD 360 will continue to be available.

Activity

Each student takes turns to draw a card from the stack of cards. The student chooses the number before or after the drawn number then covers this number on their game board. If the student cannot cover a square the next student has their turn. The drawn card is replaced in the pile so it can be drawn again. The game ends when a student covers all their numbers. Examples. Play the game again.
