Teacher Instructions
Choose a mat based on the readiness of your students. Set the mat in the middle of your playing space. Take the thematic playing cards and stack them face down in a centrally visible location. You can either have students take turns turning over the playing cards or have a card turner. When the card is turned over, students quickly complete the equation and then locate that number on the playing mat. (Sometimes there will be more than one number represented on the mat.) The first person to point to the correct number and say “Yatta” (pronounced yacht-ta), gets to keep the card. When all the cards have been played, students count up all their cards to see who has the most. That person gets to be the card turner next.
