Game

This is a game to practise addition facts. It requires students to either know these facts before playing or have some visual means of working them out (for example, counters, tens frames). The board is weighted in favour of the sums 13 and 14.
Discussion after the game might focus on why there are two 13s and 14s on the board. The table below shows that there are more ways for 13 to be made. There are five ways to make either 12 or 14, so either could have been selected to give students more opportunities to place their counters.

Note that you could ask students what sums they can make that are not on the board or which board numbers are hardest to get.
