I See Sum-thing

I See Sum-thing is a Grade 2 addition game that combines a face-up card grid with target sums from dice. Players scan adjacent cards, looking for a pair whose values add to the target created by the dice. The visual search makes students hold the target in mind while repeatedly checking possible combinations, building fluency with sums within 20 through mental math.

Use it in a small group when students are ready to move beyond counting every total from scratch. Listen for students spotting combinations quickly and explaining why a particular pair matches the target sum. Create a free Find a Math Game account to generate lesson support for I See Sum-thing.
