Basic Addition facts

LINE-UP is a Grade 1 addition card game where the value of each card is an addition sum rather than a single numeral. Players build an ordered row and columns by placing a card whose sum is one less or one greater than a neighboring card. To make a legal move, students must evaluate addition facts and compare the resulting totals.

Use it in a small group when students need basic-fact practice that also involves number order. The growing card layout gives students a visible sequence of sums and encourages them to think about which totals come immediately before or after another.
