    Rules of the Game:

    Goal The first pair of students to correctly sort the fair and unfair numbers wins.
    Steps Step 1: The teacher creates groups of beads of different colors in 2 sets for each
    group. For example, the teacher could create groups of 5 red beads, 7 blue
    beads, and 10 green beads. The teacher will need one group of each color for
    each pair.

    Step 2: Split all students into pairs. It is important for this game that you have no
    groups of 3.

    Step 3: Provide each pair with one group of beads of each color.

    Step 4: When the teacher says “start”, the pairs of students race to determine
    which colors are “fair” colors and which are “unfair” colors. “Fair” colors are
    those that can be split evenly among the two students i.e. even. “Unfair” colors
    cannot be split evenly among two students i.e. odd.

    Step 5: When a pair finishes sorting each of the colors, the students in that pair
    raises their hands.

    Step 6: If the teacher determines that the pair successfully sorted their colors
    into fair and unfair colors, then that pair wins.
    Enrichment ● As a follow-up game, the teacher can write numbers on a central board.
    The pair that decides which numbers on the board are fair and which are
    unfair using the beads at their station first wins. Have students practice
    this game until they can play it without needing the beads.
    ● Use groups of 3 students to help students practice their multiples of 3.

    Simplification ● Use small numbers (under 10).


    ● Start by doing some rounds as a class before starting the game.
