NOTE: This resource uses American English and is not editable.
I created these three games because several teachers have asked me if I had ideas about how to use Task Cards besides in Centers or with the game Scoot. These games are a fun alternative.
Use these three games with Task Cards or flash cards to reinforce skills or help with memorization. These games will work best with cards that have just one question and one correct answer for each card, and are in a short answer or multiple choice format. In all three games, students must answer a question from a card correctly before taking their turn. In Fly to the Finish and Race to the Moon, a single set of Task Card will work fine, however, Trading Places will require significantly more cards and would be more suited to flashcards (for example, multiplication facts or foreign language vocabulary words)
Making the Game
Each game is made from three pages. The first page is the title and instructions for the game. The next two pages are the game board itself. The easiest way to assemble the games is to glue the Title/Instructions to the front of a file folder and glue the two parts of the game board inside the folder. You may then want to laminate the whole thing. Please note that for Trading Places, you will need to use a ruler and a black marker to draw seven short lines to complete the hexagons in the center of the board.
Teacher Tip
Hereโs what teachers are saying:
โ๏ธ “This worked well as an independent extension with all kinds of math facts or other activities we had. You ca just pop on a game board and create an extra layer of engagement and fun adding that competition. Love and am planning to use with first grade this coming year. Thanks so much! My students loved when they saw the board added to an activity. Their comments were- “Yes! It’s now a game!” as they continued to practice their skills.” -Bilingual TX Teacher
โ๏ธ “We have been using these game boards for state test prep and word work so far. My students are loving learning! Thank you!” -Tricia C.
โ๏ธ “These are the best gameboards that I have found on TPT! They are perfect for literally any task cards that I print! Definitely a great find!” -Mariah W.

I used some of these game boards to create a game to review some of the math concepts we are covering in class. I found some free task cards as well on TPT that I used along with the game boards, or you could create your own!
