Loop Card Game - Find 1000 more or less Set 1

The Loop Card Game titled "Find 1000 more or less Set 1" is an educational resource created by KS2Gems in 2021, aimed at Year 4 students to help them practice their numerical skills. This engaging game consists of a series of cards, each posing a question that requires the player to calculate either 1000 more or 1000 less than a given number. For instance, one card might ask, "What is 1000 more than 61?" to which the answer would be 1061. Another card might challenge the student with, "What is 1000 less than 1999?" and the correct response would be 999. The game is designed to enhance mental arithmetic and reinforce the concept of place value by working with increments or decrements of a thousand.

As students progress through the Loop Card Game, they encounter a variety of numbers to which they must either add or subtract 1000. For example, a card might prompt, "What is 1000 more than 549?" with the answer being 1549, or "What is 1000 less than 4957?" with the answer being 3957. The game is structured to provide immediate feedback, as each card's question connects to the previous card's answer, forming a continuous loop. This interactive and repetitive method ensures that learners can self-check their understanding while developing their numerical fluency. The game covers a broad range of numbers, including those in the hundreds, thousands, and close to ten thousand, providing a comprehensive practice set for the students.
