GO 10

addition · making 10 with pairs of cards

To make a number using addition

GO 10 is a Grade 1 addition card game built around combinations that make 10. Students first find pairs in their own hands, then “fish” from other players for the card they need to complete another pair with a sum of 10. The familiar card-game structure gives repeated practice with number bonds while encouraging students to think about the missing addend.

Use it in a small group when students are developing fluency with combinations of 10 and need more than simple flash-card recall. Listen for students naming the partner number they need without counting through every possibility. Create a free Find a Math Game account to generate teacher-ready lesson support for GO 10. No credit card is needed, and the account includes 3 lesson generations for life.
