Math Go Fish Game:

• Make your own Go Fish, But Only Using Numbers

1. You can make the cards out of card-stock.
2. Just trace a playing card to get the right size for the cards.
3. Then make 2 to 4 sets of each number.
4. Pass out 5 cards to each player.
5. Turn over the rest of the cards, so you can't see the numbers.
6. The youngest player goes first.
7. Then they ask someone playing if they have the number they want like a 5.  If they don't have that card they must draw from the pile.  They then decide whether or not they want to keep the card. If they want the card they keep it, but they also must throw one out, number side up, in discard pile.  If they don't want the card they place it in the discard pile
8. If you are playing with 3 or 4 sets then the player must have all 3 or 4 sets before laying them down.  
9. If you're playing with 3 or 4 sets, then someone asks for the 5 card and the other person has 3 of the 5 cards they must give that player all the 5 cards.  If that player who gave the 5 cards away has no cards left then they draw one card right away.  
10. The person who has the most card sets wins.
