To find the square roots of perfect squares [8.EE.A.2].
Give Me the Squares! is a Grade 8 square-roots game focused on perfect squares. Students move through a sequence of square-root expressions, evaluate each one, and show the answer with number cards while a timer is running. The format asks for repeated recognition of perfect-square relationships rather than lengthy written computation.
Use it for small-group or partner review when students need fluency with square roots of perfect squares. Because answers are checked one at a time, teachers can quickly notice which square-number relationships students recall automatically and which still require thought.
