Guess Who?

Guess Who

I found myself really needing a way to instill numeracy and geometric reasoning in kids and get them talking so I revamped my old guess who and viola!  They get to play a game instead of think-pair share for the hundredth time. Plus it makes a great center. 

Directions:
1.       Use a "guess who" game and tape pieces over the top of the board or create your own by running the provided sheet  and laminating face down on construction paper, gluing around the edges only, not on any of the numbers or shapes boxes. Then use an exact-o knife to cut through the paper portion on three sides of each of the number or shape boxes and to stand.
2.       Have each partner get a matching game and then draw a card to see who they are to become.  Then they hide their card.
3.       Each player takes turns asking one question about their number or shape. They may use the question stems provided or ask their own.  They may place any number or shape down that they know based on the questioning could not be the other players number or shape.

4.       They may guess at any time, but a guess that is not correct will take the players turn.
