"I have___, who has ___?"
This is a game that can be used with any age range and practically in any subject and with any concept. You will need to make flash cards, at least one for every student (some can have multiple cards). This game begins with one person and will end with another. Everyone had to be listening.
Examples:
Student 1: I have 30, who has 3*7?
Student 2 has to figure out what 3*7 is....they would say I have 21, who has 9*7?
the student with the answer to 9*7 would give the answer by saying "I have 63 who has (another multiplication problem)
The game would end when a student says I have ___ who has 5*6, and the last student says I have 30.
Its a cycle. Students enjoy it very much. They can be motivated to learn their facts in order to get a quicker time each time played.
Get creative!

Baseball teaches you a lot about math. You have the winning percentage, and batters pergentage. You can use the scoring summary and convert it into math problems. The red sox final score was 6 they scored 1 in the first 3 in the fifth and 1 in the eighth how many did they score in the fourth? There are a lot more ways to include the scores into math problems. This is an easy way to incorperate a childs intrest with math.

This is a more competitive version of tic-tac-toe:
The class is divided into two teams. For each turn, one person from each team goes to the board. Ask the question and the first person to solve the problem correctly and circle the answer gets to put the x or o.
Be warned: This can get out of hand if the class gets rowdy with cheering and such.

Ive got a couple...
1) Around the world, make everyone sit in a circle, and then start with two ppl right next to each other and make them stand, ask them a question and the first on the answer gets to move clockwise and face the next person. the first one to come back to their original place wins.
2) Get two teams. Get a chalkboard or whatever, divide it in two. Ask one person to come to the board from each team, give them a problem to solve. the first one to solve properly wins. this only works with equations and stuff
3) Trashketball- get a trash can and a make a paper ball (crush it into a form of a ball) and the ask questions, who ever answers it gets to throw and if they make it, they get a point.
thats it for now, if u need more contact me

cribbage is a game that is all about math skills. You could change it so you can peg even more if you manipulate the numbers in whatever lesson your trying to teach.

tic-tac-toe: Put concept you are teaching in each square, and the child must solve the problem before putting an x or o.
