Strategic thought process is also developed. 2) Using a relay format, teams race to bring back pins that: * are in numeric order * prime numbers * difference of two numbers 3) Use stop watches to time racing activities. 4) Bring back eg, 3 numbers that make 30, or 4 numbers that make 21 using one of the basic operations. 5) Fraction relays. 6) Teacher calls out a fraction and student must fetch the numbers that represent an equivalent fraction. 7) It is possible to use beanbags with younger children instead of the finska wooden throwing pin.
