10 Pyramid

In math on Friday I introduced a fun game for practicing partners to make ten. You can play with 10 grid cards or a regular deck of cards (face cards are 10). To play you take fifteen cards and lay them out in a pyramid, starting with one card on top, each new row should overlap the row below (see pictures). Players take turns looking for cards that equal ten, but can only use exposed cards. If the can't make ten it is the other player's turn. They start by laying one new card down from the deck. Play continues until pyramid is gone or no more combinations can be made.
