Time:
30 minutes
Things you need:
- Four Place Markers
Setup:
Divide a piece of scrap paper into four sections and label them 1 to 4.
Randomly place the following in each four sections
- Add
- Subtract
- Multiply
- Repeat the last
Randomly add four workouts, one to each section.
For example:

Action
Choose a number
Ask parent/sibling to give you a number from 1-10. Be sure to pick two different numbers
Start in the first (1) corner and do the math and then do the physical activity that many times
(for example, you chose 5 and your sibling gave you 4 and you landed on the jumping jack and multiply corner – You will be doing 5×4 = 20 jumping jacks.).
Then go to 2nd, 3rd and fourth.
Reflection
- Which numbers did you find the most challenging? Why?
- What strategy did help you do mental Math?
- How can you change this workout next time?
