Flower Pot Number Bond Game

I really feel like students can never get enough practice with number bonds, so I created this spring flower pot number bond game.

Preparing the Game

Print the templates and glue the two sides of the game board together as shown below.

Copy the playing cards with the number bonds on one side and the flowers on the backside.

Materials

game board (for every four players)

playing cards

game piece (one per player)

seeds (pennies, gold coins, bingo chips etc)

How to Play

Players determine who is player one, two, three and four then locate their flower pot on the game board.

Players begin at “Start.”

Player one rolls the die and moves that many spaces. S/he then picks a card, completes the number bond and then adds that number of “seeds” to his/her flower pot on the playing board.

For example, player one picks the following card, completes the number bond with a 1 and then puts 3 “seeds” in his/her flower pot.

Other players do the same until someone makes it around the game board or until time is up.

Player with the most “seeds” at the end may be declared the winner.
