Loop Card Game - Adding two numbers with 3 decimal places

The Loop Card Game is an engaging educational activity designed for Year 6 students to practice adding two numbers with three decimal places. Each card in the game presents a mathematical addition problem, requiring students to calculate the sum of two numbers, each precisely measured to the thousandths place. For example, one card might display "4.915 + 3.033", and students need to find the correct answer among the other cards in the set. The game is a continuous loop where the answer to one problem leads to the next question, creating a chain of calculations that circle back to the beginning.

This interactive learning tool, created by KS2Gems in 2021, is not only a fun way to reinforce arithmetic skills but also sharpens students' attention to detail when dealing with decimal numbers. The Loop Card Game contains a variety of sums, such as "7.948 + 3.007" or "1.239 + 1.401", ensuring that pupils are challenged and remain engaged throughout the activity. The game is designed to be played in groups or individually, making it a versatile addition to the classroom that caters to different learning styles and encourages independent learning as well as collaboration among peers.
