Preparation

You will need a set of numbers 1-13 for each team and a sheet of about 30-40 questions that have numbers for answers. Make sure you have question for every number that you use, so no student is left out.

Directions

  • Divide the class into teams. For small classes 2 teams work well.
  • Each student should get as least one number, some students may get more.
  • Explain that you will read questions where all of the answers are numbers and that the team member with the correct answer should hold it up.
  • First team with the correct answer up, gets a point.
  • The team with the most points at the end of the game wins.

Example questions

  • How many sports? Basketball, tennis, soccer, banana.
  • How many family words? Mother, father, car, brother, apple, uncle.
  • How many seasons in a year?
  • How many players on a basketball team(5).
  • How many players in a singles tennis game?(2)
  • How many legs does an octopus have?
  • How many brothers do I have?
  • How many months from October to June?
  • What was the Japanese year last year?

Later on in the game, read questions with answers that require students to put their numbers together. What is 11+6? Save a big number for last.(How many days in a year?)
