Willy Wonka Chocolate Math

Using 10 Game

I teach math, social studies and science to first graders. However, that doesn't mean that I don't love books and reading. I have a degree in school library media after all! I love to relate books to math and content. I also love to read to my students for enjoyment whenever I have extra time. I am currently reading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Roald Dahl is one of my favorite authors of all time, so I wanted to share my passion with my students. They love whenever we have a few extra minutes before recess so they can hear the story of Charlie Bucket and Willy Wonka and visualize exploring the magnificent chocolate factory. I thought making a game that connected to this book would be very engaging for my students.

Once again I looked to Teachers Pay Teachers and found this AMAZING and free clip art to create this draw and cover game. This game focuses on a 2nd grade fact strategy, using 10. I have a lot of students that have already mastered first grade facts. YAY! This game will give them a head start in 2nd grade. Students draw a card, solve the addition fact and cover the Wonka bar with the correct sum. I haven't shown this game to my students yet, so you once again get to be the first to see it. I hope you like it! Please leave feedback!
