Math Sprint - Crew Review

 

Disclaimer: I received a FREE copy of this product through the HOMESCHOOL REVIEW CREW in exchange for my honest review. I was not required to write a positive review nor was I compensated in any other way.

Math Sprint - The Mental Math Game from Byron’s Games reinforces addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division skills. The game comes with printed instructions, one running track board, 258 cards, 10 dry erase cards, 1 marker, and 8 runner playing pieces. Of the 258 cards, there are 92 addition/subtraction cards, 106 multiplication/division cards, 30 wild cards, and 30 challenge cards. The object of the game is to get your runner to the finish line by answering mental math questions.



Before play, you will need to determine which cards you want to include in your draw pile and shuffle those cards well. I love this option. To reinforce multiplication/division skills, we played with these cards on several occasions. To begin play, each player selects a runner piece and places it in one of the lanes, numbered 1-8. Then you will need to determine whether you want to race the 100m Dash, 200m Dash, or the 400m Dash. The 100m Dash is a beginner level for elementary school players or for the first time playing. The 200m Dash is an intermediate level when you have more time to play. The 400m Dash is an advanced level for middle school players or older students who need to work on their math skills. This is really a fun game for the whole family to play. If playing with varying levels, younger children can run the shorter distance, while more advanced players run the longer distance. Each time a player answers a question correctly, they move their runner piece forward two spaces. If a player does not answer the question correctly, then players do not move. This would be a great time to show the player how to work out the math problem and use the game as a learning tool.

Math Sprint is a fun educational game to sharpen your math skills, as you race to the finish line and answer a variety of mental math questions. Every game played boosts your mental math abilities; but also provides precious time for you and your family to grow together.
