<span style="color: #eb2868; font-family: Georgia,serif;">1. Shuffle the number cards and place them face down in a stack. <span style="color: #eb2868; font-family: Georgia,serif;">2. Player One picks up the first card and names the number that comes before it and the number that comes after it. <span style="color: #eb2868; font-family: Georgia,serif;">3. Using the number line, both players check to see if the numbers were named correctly. If so, Player One keeps the card. If not, the card is returned to the bottom of the pile. <span style="color: #eb2868; font-family: Georgia,serif;">4. Players take turns into all the cards are gone. The player with the most cards wins.

<span style="color: #eb2868; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Make a large number line from 0-20 on the floor of your classroom. Have students take turns rolling a dice and hopping the appropriate number of counts along the number line. The first player to reach the end of the number line and back wins.
