FLASH ADDITION

addition · adding numbers within 20 using visual memory of dominoes

To add numbers within 20 [1.OA.C.6].

FLASH ADDITION is a Grade 1 domino game that combines addition within 20 with visual memory. A domino is briefly shown, then hidden, and students recreate the dot pattern on paper before writing and solving the addition sentence it represents. Remembering the two quantities adds a visual-attention challenge while still keeping the mathematical goal on composing a sum.

Use it in a small group when students know basic dot patterns and need addition practice that is more active than a fact sheet. Students can compare how they remembered each side of the domino and verify the resulting sum. Create a free Find a Math Game account to generate lesson support for FLASH ADDITION.
